#abuseinthechurch

Bruxy Cavey, the disgraced former pastor of one of Canada’s largest churches, may have sexually abused more than one woman, the church told its members on Saturday (March 19).

When we think of signs of spiritual abuse, says Wade Mullen, “I think many of us have this perception of abuse that is related to some kind of violent event...what I’ve come to realize over time is that abuse is much broader than that.”

Two years ago after it came to light that he had knowingly supported admitted sexual abuser, Andy Savage, former Highpoint pastor Chris Conlee is starting a new church.

How adept are you at recognizing the patterns of spiritual abuse in evangelicalism? Dr. Wade Mullen shares his insights on this topic based on extensive research, Scripture, and his personal experience.

Peter and Katie’s hope (and ours) in sharing their story is that others will learn from their experience with spiritual abuse and avoid a similar one.
