Angela shares about Hagar’s Voice – an organization that supports women and other people who are victims of clergy sexual abuse – and how it came to be. She talks her own story of abuse, talks about how patterns in the greater Church lead to abuse, what we can do as Christians to prevent it, how to take action when a victim comes forward, and more. It is a conversation that is important for all Christians to hear with very practical steps to apply.
