Low Motives in High Places is written to educate and expose congregations to the mounting epidemic of clergy abuse and provide for them a model of restoration for the minister who becomes guilty of this hidden crime that produces secret pain and public shame.

Above all, Low Motives in High Places is written to the victim of abuse to convey to them that there is, in the body of Christ those who have a listening ear, a heart of compassion, a desire to help understand and communicate their pain in a way that will bring justice and accountability to their abusers.
