One in four women, and one in six men, have experienced sexual assault. What is sexual assault? What role can the church play in fostering healing? Recent Hollywood scandals and the #MeToo movement have pushed the issue of sexual assault into public consciousness. How should we respond? Can the church be a safe place for survivors? What does it look like for a survivor to recover? How does the gospel of Christ offer a unique and distinct hope in the midst of sexual brokenness?

Our guests for this forum are Shanda Anderson, LPC-S and Jessie Wells, LMSW. Shanda and Jessie join us from the Austin Stone Counseling Center to discuss this important issue.
