When the #Metoo movement broke out, some Christians were sympathetic but a little smug. Well, that’s what happens in godless Hollywood, some seemed to think. Then the #Chuchtoo movement was born. As story after story broke of Christian leaders engaging in similar predatory behavior, suddenly we didn’t feel so smug anymore. The truth is that no place—including churches—is off limits for potential abuse. That why it’s so important to be vigilant.

This week we’re featuring practical resources to help your church protect its members. Our Safety and Security Assessment Pack is designed to help you enact basic safety measures that will make your church a secure environment. Perhaps no ministry in your church is more vulnerable to potential predators than the children’s ministry. This resource will enable your church to carry out its mission while safeguarding minors against emotional, physical, and sexual abuses.
