"This book is done with excellence. Clergy, clinicians and
Christians will find this book helpful, well researched and
practical.--Great job!"
--Douglas Weiss, Ph.D., Director of Heart to Heart Counseling
Center in Colorado Springs, CO "The church has a problem that we're
not talking about. I wish a book like this didn't have to be
written, but it does. This is must-reading for anyone who hopes to
understand the plague of sexual addiction among clergy."
--Dr. Matt Whitehead, Superintendent, Pacific Northwest Conference
of the Free Methodist Church
"What an incredible tool for navigating the tumultuous waters of
clergy sexual misconduct, If you're looking for strategies of
prevention and options for treatment, look no further. This helpful
compendium is chock-full of them."
--Les Parrott, Ph.D.Author of Crazy Good Sex "A must read for every
church member and every clergy person. Ordination
does not make a minister immune to sexual misconduct or compulsive
sexual behavior. Unfortunately, the assumed standard that clergy
should live perfect lives often keeps them from seeking help or
admitting to falling short of perfection. Clergy Sexual Misconduct
provides the blueprint for hope and restoration."
--Milton S. Magness, D. Min., CSAT, Director of Hope & Freedom
Counseling Services "The world's best experts on this subject
organize their deepest wisdom and successful remedies. That makes
this THE one and only go-to reference for members of the Christian
congregational community dealing with issues surrounding clergy
sexual misconduct."
--Mavis Humes Baird, CSAT-S, Contributing writer to Mending A
Shattered Heart: A Guide for Partners of Sex Addicts
