About the Book

When prevention fails and a faith leader violates the boundaries of a pastoral or teaching relationship, a judicatory or organization must be prepared to respond. When a complaint of misconduct comes forward, the complainant, the faith leader, and the congregation or organization where the violation occurred all are in need of response and action. The complaint needs to be investigated and adjudicated but the congregation or organization also needs support to deal with its confusion, grief, and anger in order to move towards healing and restoration.Responding to Clergy Misconduct lays out the basic principles of analysis of ministerial misconduct: who, what, when, and where. It offers the basic principles for response to complaints and the conceptual framework to navigate the process of response. The handbook is non-denominational and not intended to represent the teachings of any particular denomination or movement in matters of doctrine or morals.An invaluable resource for judicatory leaders, committees and commissions who are addressing complaints of clergy misconduct. Includes extensive, comprehensive and essential resource with reference materials, detailed appendices and case studies.
