Evangelicalish CSA & Church Abuse with Mary Katherine Backstrom
Bestselling author, blogger and social media activist Mary Katherine Backstrom joins Evangelicalish this week to talk about being a survivor of CSA (child sexual abuse) and how her church responded when she reported it to them.
We also touch on purity culture and the cover it gives to abusers. Then the show ends with a new game - Two Truths & A Lie - but with comments we've each received on our individual platforms.
