"Accused of sexual abuse of a teenage girl... Accused of sexually abusing male teens... Accused of rape... Accused of raping a woman she met on Facebook... Accused of knowingly spreading HIV to several women " Who are these people accused of these horrific acts of sexual abuse? Ex convicts? The mentally disturbed? The creepy-looking guy in the neighborhood? Perverts? Well, think again. These are pastors, ministers, priests, church leaders, and/or church staff "He was literally undressing me with his eyes... This guy was staring and winking at me the whole time... When I pulled away, only my head pulled back, and then he kissed me... They were eyeing women like it was a meat market " Sounds like the typical nightclub or bar scene, doesn't it? But where did these things take place? In church I firmly believe that the church and specifically the church leaders have not invested time and energy into understanding, preventing, or responding to sexual misconduct or harassment allegations. Every major corporation enforces a harassment policy. Every employee must go through sexual harassment training. One company I worked at devoted an entire day of training entitled Respect in the Workplace. So as an HR professional and minister, I believe the Lord has led me to bring you Respect in the Church Place.
