S2 E28: Kate: When a Pastor/Husband is a Predator: Trauma, abuse, and Healing
Manage episode 380863512 series 1116042
A pastor who had 12 victims over the course of 20 years is found out. The patriarchal leadership of the church wants to sweep it all under the rug quickly. But *Kate, who happens to be married to this pastor, says “No!” She is not allowed to lead in this culture in spite of being the greatest leader in the room with the best plan, so she decides to take matters into her own hands. This is her story of trauma, tragedy, reconciliation, and healing.
*Kate is not her real name, but a pseudonym to protect her from ongoing abusive actions of former church leaders and former husband.
