Church, Family, and Sexual Abuse: Safeguarding Our Children

We need to know that we can't regulate right now, so we don't need to be there. There are times in my past where I intentionally didn't go somewhere because I knew that I couldn't handle it.
Ever wondered how deep the issue of childhood sexual abuse by church leaders goes? Dr. Rick Marks and Angelia Savage take on this critical and sensitive topic in their episode of 'RelateWell'. They don't shy away from discussing the alarming prevalence of such abuses and the often shocking cover-ups that follow. The conversation dives into how families and church communities can recognize and respond to these predatory behaviors. Dr.
Rick and Angelia break down practical steps for protecting children, such as conducting thorough background checks on church staff and promoting healthy sexual education among Christian youth. They also explore the lasting impact of abuse on personal lives and the essential elements of trust needed to heal. This episode is not just informative but also a call to action for anyone involved in church communities. With empathy and insight, Dr.
Rick and Angelia offer a guiding light through one of the darkest issues facing our society today.
