For many Christians and church leaders, the idea of Satanic Ritual Abuse (SRA) seems unthinkable—too extreme, too dark, or simply a “conspiracy theory.” Survivors often remain silent, families question their sanity, and pastors and congregations avoid the subject altogether. Yet, silence does not erase reality. SRA is real. It is devastating. And it is allowed to thrive when the church refuses to acknowledge it.

Church wounds are real. Many are walking around spiritually homeless because they were shamed, silenced, or misunderstood by the very people meant to shepherd them. Like Paul said in Ephesians 6:12, our battle isn’t against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces of evil. Much of the pain we carry stems from demonic attacks, not human intention—but when leaders lack discernment and compassion, they can become conduits of pain instead of healing.

To every survivor reading this: You are more than what happened to you. You were made for more. You are not just a survivor—you are an overcomer in the making.
