Σύνοψη:Sexual abuse within the church is not a new phenomenon, with revelations about abuse within the catholic church having long been on the public radar. However, in the wake of the #Metoo movement, recent years have seen an increase in awareness of cases of sexual abuse within Christian circles.

In viewing sexual abuse through this lens, I will also be considering relevant insights and applications for the church.
