• I Heard the Term "Adult Clergy S*xual Ab*se," & Finally Realized...
    Dec 12 2024

    "They said, 'You shouldn't have taken the man of God down..."

    This week on 'Worship Is My Weapon,' Rita sits down with Megan Anderson - a survivor of Adult Clergy Sexual Abuse (ACSA).

    Megan's life forever changed when she walked into Believers Church in Marshfield, Wisconsin, and met Pastor Ed Gungor.

    Twenty-five years later, Megan now understands that what she experienced was abuse. And, although it's a story she never wanted to tell, Megan hopes that by sharing what happened to her, other victims will find freedom again, too.
