What other forms of church hurt and spiritual abuse have you noticed? What should I address next?

Crucial wisdom I have to remind myself to heed:
Lay down your worries after you’ve done all you can to address them. Focus on the talents and passions you can control at present. Build the now, rather than focusing on what was wrong then, or what could happen next.
