This is lecture 1/4 from the conference held in spring of 2019 with Chalcedon Vice-president Martin Selbrede as the featured speaker. Although this conference was called "Domestic Abuse and the Church," it also focused attention on a wider range of abuses, particularly abuse by clergy and churches.
