GoodBookStall Review:
Beth Crisp has created a series of Lenten studies that reflect on the issues surrounding sexual abuse. As each study unfolds it becomes clear why identifying with the crucified Christ can be an important part of moving on after such abuse. The crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus also demonstrates why it is better to use the word ‘survivor’ rather than ‘victim’. There is a challenge for churches to consider whether they need to respond differently to those who have suffered such traumas.
