The church’s strength and witness are deeply damaged by pastoral sexual misconduct – and yet it happens. We look at how to create clear standards about expectations and how to investigate complaints about sexual misconduct by church leaders. We look at healing in a church context where there has been sexual misconduct by the pastor.

Presenter: Arli Klassen is the moderator of Mennonite Church Eastern Canada, which has recently managed a number of pastoral sexual misconduct complaints. She also serves as regional representatives coordinator for Mennonite World Conference.
