Ministry and #MeToo
Episode 1
This Cultural Moment
Danielle Strickland
We are living through a cultural moment where women and men are using their collective voices to reveal the extent and pain of sexual misconduct and abuse. In Episode 1 of the Ministry and #MeToo learning journey, justice advocate Danielle Strickland calls us to a God-sized vision for faith-centered leaders to embrace during this unique time in history. This moment presents significant challenges for our ministries, but also massive opportunities. Learn how to reject the temptation to respond in fear, and instead, to create a future that truly is better together.
