How do you heal when the person who was supposed to protect you was the one who handed you over to be abused?
What do you do when going to church just isn't easy anymore?
In this very special and emotional 34th episode of the True Comfort podcast, Teasi Cannon shares a major update and a deeply personal announcement. After over a year of interviewing incredible guests—from renowned apologists to those who have endured unimaginable loss and physical suffering—Teasi reflects on the profound comfort and hope those conversations have brought her and her listeners. The big news is that Teasi is officially launching her new book! Titled Counterfeit Forgiveness: How a Modern Myth Betrays Victims, Protects Abusers, and Corrupts the Gospel, the book will be released on August 28th. She explains how her previous deep-dive episodes into biblical forgiveness inspired her to write this crucial message for the body of Christ. To dedicate her time and resources to the book launch, Teasi will be pausing the True Comfort podcast for the next few months. She shares her heartfelt gratitude to her listeners, shedding tears as she thanks them for their tenderness, solidarity, and encouragement throughout this journey.
