When the Church Harms God's People

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Diane Langberg boldly tackles a difficult but vitally important topic. She brings to light the trauma inflicted ‘in the name of Jesus’ when the very institution called to protect, heal, and nurture God’s people fails to acknowledge and stop abuse. Langberg’s professional and compassionate insights offer a roadmap for recognizing abusive patterns, identifying victims, and contributing to a restorative culture that represents the true character of Christ. I am grateful for this resource and appreciate the courage it took to address this truth.”
