Natalie Runion Addresses Church Hurt, Healing and Restoration
Church hurt is a poignant reality that many believers face on their spiritual journey with Jesus. As followers of Christ, we are called to love both our Savior and the people He loves. This often leads us to gather and worship together in churches. However, there is always the potential for division and offense anytime we are in groups of other people.
The personal experience and reality of church hurt gripped the heart of Natalie Runion, leading her to start a ministry and write a book called, “Raised to Stay.” In an exclusive interview with Charisma Magazine Online, Runion shared her journey through church hurt and how Christians can be the hands and feet of Jesus when people need it the most.
“Being a pastor’s kid growing up in it, and then going into ministry right out of college, I kept thinking, ‘Well, surely when I become an adult everybody will just magically grow up,’” Runion said. “And I was actually wrong. You know, the older we get, the more into church we get, the more leadership roles we take. But ultimately, the more people we love, the more people we let in, the more people we are in community with, that hurt ratio to relationships and all of that, it grows.”

Walking in Truth: Anointing and Righteousness Illuminate Our Path With Pastor Greg Locke
In a world filled with clamor and confusion, where the prevailing winds of secularism seek to shake the foundations of faith, the Word of God stands as a steadfast beacon of truth.
Led by the Holy Spirit and armed with the scriptures, Pastor Greg Locke discussed the timeless wisdom that guides us, not in passive contemplation, but in active devotion to a life of righteousness at a recent Global Vision Bible Church gathering.
Locke shared Paul’s Epistle to the church which resonates powerfully with believers today, reminding us of our mission to uphold the gospel’s sanctity. Our spiritual journey is not one of mere submission to doctrine, but of understanding the Word, allowing the anointing of the Holy Spirit to illuminate our path.

Understanding Mysteries of the Anointing
You are a spirit.
Let that sink in for just a moment. You are not a soul. You are not a body. You are a spirit. You have a soul. You live in a body. But you are a spirit. That’s who you are. Your body is not the real you. The real you is your spirit.
At the moment of your salvation, something dynamic happened. The person of the Holy Spirit became one with your spirit. The Scripture is clear on this in 1 Corinthians 6:17, where it says, “He that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.” When the Holy Spirit and your spirit became one, at that moment, life, rebirth, cleansing, renewal and regeneration took place. The moment this oneness between the Holy Spirit and your spirit took place, a mighty force was released. This force within us is what we call the anointing.
