Tragically there are too many times when a spiritual leader uses
their spiritual authority to perpetrate sexual harm and abuse on
individuals under their care. The harm such victims experience is
deep and long-lasting. And when these individuals seek help, the
church's response has too often only added to their pain.
In this sobering but enlightening episode Dr. Carol talks with
Christian lawyer Boz Tchividjian about clergy sexual abuse in the
Protestant church - a cause he has devoted a good share of his
career to. Boz has worked for decades on behalf of those who have
experienced sexual abuse, assault, and harrassment, and brings both
courage and grace to this important conversation.
