And at its basic level, spiritual abuse is just one kind of sin. There is nothing particularly complicated about it—spiritual trauma is the mental and emotional harm that comes from having damaging or abusive interactions with other Christians.

John Calvin saw a similar thing in his day, and it was at the root of his quarrel with Rome.
