Episode 23: Responding to Scandal

Ministry Leaders Anonymous

Sadly, when someone hears the Catholic Church in the news, they most likely expect to hear about the brokenness and often atrocious acts of those who abuse their power and office. But how do we, the ministry leaders that are working every day to show the love of God, respond when scandal becomes such a large shadow on the the Church? What should we feel? What should we do next? None of the answers are easy, but join Matt & Chris this week in trying to detangle the effects on ourselves and our ministries. Thanks to ALOB for letting us use his song, Strong God, from the album No Match for Love!
