A Tale of Two Felonies: How NOT to Handle a Sex Abuse Scandal in the Church

A Tale of Two Felonies: How NOT to Handle a Sex Abuse Scandal in the Church

On today's podcast I'm sharing a personal experience with a church that dealt publicly with two local crime news stories involving members of their church--one as I was coming into the church, and one when I was walking out. How the church handled the first crime and its victims reflected Jesus to me. It made me want to be a part of a church that would go out of their way to help broken kids, allowing their homes and lives to be disrupted in the name of Christ. How they handled the second made me grieve for its victims, and for church leaders who value reputation and institution over wounded people.
