Predators in the Pews
from Looking for Grace Hosted by Elita Galvin
In this episode, we will be taking a look at what the church's response should be when a convicted child offender wants to join their faith community, or when a member of their faith community is convicted of an egregious crime against children and wants to remain an active part of the faith community. Specifically, we will be looking at this through the lens of how church leaders in Pawley's Island Community Church and Greater Grace World Outreach handled these requests-and what the results of those decisions were. We will also be looking at what organizations such as GRACE recommend in response to these situations. CONTENT WARNING: this episode contains multiple references to sexual crimes against children.
