TW: Conversations around sexual abuse.
A Royal Commission of Inquiry is investigating child sex abuse in both state and faith-based care. Rhema Days hosts a panel featuring Frances Tagaloa, Jim Goodwin, and Rupene Amato, who share their personal experiences and have submitted their stories to the Commission, which was recently presented to the Governor General. Rhema's Andrew Urquhart asks questions such as: How should we respond as a society and church community? Are more safeguards the responsibility of the government or the church? How can we prevent abuse from occurring and provide pathways for healing and wholeness?
