Book Discussion with Professor/Author Andrew Schmutzer

Please bring your lunch to the Crowell Library @ noon on Friday, November 4th to discuss Dr. Andrew Schmutzer’s new edited volume, The Long Journey Home: Understanding and Ministering to the Sexually Abused. If you plan to become a pastor or counselor, please do not miss this opportunity to learn more about ministering to those recovering from sexual abuse. Dessert will be provided and books will be available for purchase.

"Designed as a resource for Christian educators, therapists, pastors, social workers, group leaders, and survivors, The Long Journey Home combines current research in mental health with rich theological reflection, global concern with fervent pastoral wisdom for the local faith community. Whether you are a counselor, professor, pastor, or spouse of a survivor, you hold in your hand a fresh resource of information and advocacy for those suffering from the devastating effects of sexual abuse and rape. The breadth of material, biblical insight, discussion questions, and helpful resources gathered here just may be the tool of a generation." - Wipf & Stock description
