About This Event Join Dr. Hillary L. McBride and Joshua Harris for an evening that meets spiritual pain head-on and refuses to look away. Together they’ll name how trusted religious spaces can inflict deep wounds, then chart practical, hope-filled ways forward—both for individuals and the communities that shape us. Expect a candid, collaborative dialogue where research meets real life: Hillary, a psychologist and trauma researcher, will unpack insights from her new book Holy Hurt , giving language to invisible injuries and outlining proven pathways to healing. Josh, once known for I Kissed Dating Goodbye , will share his public journey of deconstruction, accountability, and repair, offering hard-won perspective on owning harm and rebuilding faith on new terms. The goal is simple: create a room where you can safely examine your own story, gather tools for reconnection—with yourself, with others, and with whatever spirituality now feels true—and leave knowing you’re not alone in the work of becoming whole. What You'll Experience: Brief welcome Hillary’s research-based talk on spiritual trauma Josh’s personal story of reckoning and repair Candid dialogue between the two speakers Interactive Q&A and book signing No quick fixes—just truth-telling, deep listening, and the reminder that none of us is alone.
