Does Independency Enable Abuse? In:Dependence
-
- Christianity
Does Independency have a weakness when it comes to diagnosing and dealing with abuse? Does it allow abusers to thrive through a lack of external accountability? Is there any place for intra-dependence to guard against abuse?
In this episode, Adrian Reynolds (Head of National Ministries) and John Stevens (National Director) discuss the definitions of Independency, how that works out in practice, and whether there is an inherent weakness of Independency to allow abusers to thrive.
