For decades , a little-known Christian sect has dealt with its abusive ministers and spiritual elders mostly in secret.
Forgiveness was far from a cure: The abusers were often sent to live with other unsuspecting families, where they had easy access to new victims.

“I'm not trying to take away your salvation or attack your faith, but how can we keep our kids safe?

There's a rallying behind survivors.”.
