<p>What does it really take for someone to feel like they belong?<br /> <br /> In this episode of Every Child Belongs, Kim talks with psychiatrist, author, and speaker Dr. Curt Thompson about belonging, shame, suffering, rupture and repair, and the kind of community that helps people heal.<br /> <br /> Drawing from his work, his books, and his experience serving at Hope Heals Camp, Curt shares why belonging is never just a vague idea. It is something we experience in relationships, in being known, and in spaces where people are welcomed without shame.<br /> <br /> If you are a parent, caregiver, pastor, ministry leader, or someone longing for deeper community, this conversation will encourage and challenge you.<br /> <br /> In this episode, they discuss:<br /> -why belonging is built through relationships<br /> -why so many families feel isolated in church spaces<br /> -what makes church wounds feel especially painful<br /> -how shame affects the way we respond to others<br /> -why real healing happens in community<br /> -how to start creating spaces where every child and family can feel at home<br /> <br /> "Boundless Hope for Every Child: Help for the Hurting, Compassion for the Misunderstood, Belonging for the Lonely" by Kim Botto<br /> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Utuw6V">https://amzn.to/3Utuw6V</a><br /> (affiliate links)<br /> <br /> Every Child Belongs explores how we can create spaces where every child feels heard and valued, whether neurodivergent, differently abled, or they've experienced trauma.
