Ep 10: Silence is Deadly: NDAs and the Church

Guests: Scot McKnight & Boz Tchividjian.

Interviewer: Maureen Garcia.

Join Robert, Hannah, and Zane as they break down a previous GRACE Live Conversation with author and professor Scot McKnight and attorney Boz Tchividjian about the insidious use of nondisclosure agreements within churches to silence abuse survivors. Plus, how a Dr. Who villain relates to NDAs, the role of the wider-church community in stopping the normalization of confidentiality clauses, and the importance of wielding Scripture with caution.
