Review:
When Ministers Sin: Sexual Abuse in the Churches is an explosive books of powerful and authentic stories of betrayal. These personal accounts of sexual abuse by ministers of religion might not have been listened to in the past. Today, the churches cannot ignore them. Among the subjects covered in Part One: pastoral sexual abuse, celibacy (problem or solution?), from victim to survivor, the abusive minister, perspectives on church response, and the phenomena of a "theology" of abuse - justifying the unjustifiable. Part Two features a history of individual vulnerability, there is no "safe place", the concept of a sacred betrayal, not only men abuse, and the combining of secret sex with public power. An epilogue brings closure and a select bibliography is provided for further study. -- Midwest Book Review
