Description

Allegations of abuse and #MeToo experiences have impacted communities in many faiths, including the Pagan, Buddhist and Christian traditions. Holli Emore, executive director of the South Carolina-based Cherry Hill Seminary, explains how its online curriculum helps future faith leaders in Pagan and Nature-based spiritual ministries to root out abuse. Journalist Wendy Joan Biddlecombe details the fallout of recent abuse allegations in the Buddhist Shambhala International community and how it’s working to right wrongs. And Emily McFarlan Miller, a national reporter with Religion News Service, gives us an update on the #ChurchToo movement.
