By PETER SMITH<\/strong><\/p>\n

Four years ago, the Southern Baptist Convention received a landmark report asserting that top leaders in the nation\u2019s largest Protestant denomination had long minimized reports of sexual abuse by clergy, intimidated survivors and stonewalled reforms.<\/p>\n

The convention\u2019s 2022 annual meeting passed a resolution apologizing to abuse survivors, several of them by name. It authorized reforms that included the creation of a database of credibly accused church workers.<\/p>\n

It appeared to mark a reckoning within the SBC in tandem with the wider #MeToo and #ChurchToo movements \u2014 and a recognition that clergy sex abuse extended far beyond the much-publicized scandal in the Catholic Church.<\/p>\n

But prominent survivors and advocates have largely given up trying to bring about change in the SBC after witnessing what they view as increasingly faltering efforts toward reform.<\/p>\n

And now a counternarrative has reached the highest levels of convention leadership. Prominent Southern Baptists are promoting the view that although sexual abuse has occurred in the SBC, it never rose to a \u201ccrisis\u201d level.<\/p>\n

SBC president says issue of sexual abuse has been \u2018weaponized\u2019 and politicized<\/h4>\n

The SBC\u2019s newly elected president, Florida pastor Willy Rice, has portrayed the 2022 report by consultant Guidepost Solutions as a \u201csnipe hunt.\u201d Rice said some people with political motives \u201cweaponized\u201d the issue against the large, conservative denomination.<\/p>\n

Texas megachurch pastor Jack Graham, a former SBC president, similarly denied there was ever a \u201csystemic sexual abuse crisis\u201d in the denomination.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThe whole thing was a reckless hoax which has cost us not only millions of dollars but immeasurable damage to our witness,\u201d Graham recently posted on the social media site X, alluding to costly lawsuits and impact on the SBC\u2019s reputation.<\/p>\n

For survivors, such words are traumatizing but not surprising.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor all those who watched us lead the reform, they also watched us get verbally attacked, maligned, bullied & in the end dropped,\u201d survivor Tiffany Thigpen posted on X. She attended the 2022 annual meeting to advocate for reform but has avoided recent meetings.<\/p>\n

Rice said churches should provide training on abuse prevention, report \u201cany hint of illegal activity to the appropriate authorities\u201d and care for victims.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

The sexual-abuse reform effort \u201cabsolutely was weaponized, just like the #MeToo movement in the secular culture was weaponized,\u201d Rice said. He drew a comparison with sexual assault allegations against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, who denied them and characterized them as politically motivated.<\/p>\n

Rice maintained that churches, like other youth-serving organizations, have learned much about the issue.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo the degree that there have ever been times that Baptist churches or Baptist institutions did not handle abuse correctly, that has damaged our witness,\u201d Rice acknowledged in a news conference at the conclusion of the SBC\u2019s annual meeting earlier this month in Orlando, Florida. \u201cWe have tried very hard over the last several years to correct that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rejecting the framing of sexual abuse as a crisis, once a marginal view in the SBC, is increasingly mainstream. Rice\u2019s sole opponent for SBC president, Josh Powell, took a similar stance.<\/p>\n

Rice was elected at an annual meeting where delegates also advanced a constitutional ban on SBC churches with women pastors, a measure requiring ratification next year.<\/p>\n

Survivor says there\u2019s no political agenda for those speaking out about abuse<\/h4>\n

Christa Brown \u2014 a survivor of sexual abuse by an SBC pastor and longtime advocate for reforms \u2014 said that if anyone was politicizing the abuse issue, it was people involved in SBC power struggles, not the victims.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor clergy sex abuse survivors, there has never been anything to gain in speaking out. To the contrary, it almost always comes with a heavy personal cost,\u201d she said via email. \u201cThere\u2019s no political agenda.\u201d<\/p>\n

She added: \u201cThere is no place within the SBC where someone who was sexually abused by a pastor or church worker can safely report it and get a proper response. I\u2019ve been working within this arena for over two decades, and this reality has not changed.\u201d<\/p>\n

The convention\u2019s 2022 annual meeting authorized a database of church workers credibly accused of sexual abuse and the creation of a task force to oversee reforms. The task force was later discontinued without creating the database, due in part to liability concerns.<\/p>\n

The issue was turned over to the denomination\u2019s Executive Committee, which instead is referring churches to existing sex-offender databases while focusing on abuse prevention and education.<\/p>\n

Brown said sexual abuse committed by clergy is uniquely traumatizing. Abusive faith leaders often manipulate the religious language of spiritual authority and forgiveness to manipulate the trust of a minor.<\/p>\n

\u201cSexual abuse committed by clergy carries unique dynamics (and this is something that most SBC leaders just don\u2019t seem to understand\u2026 or don\u2019t want to understand),\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n

Jules Woodson, a survivor who advocated for SBC abuse reforms at past meetings, said on X she has since needed to \u201cstep far away as it became apparent the #SBC has never been, & will never be, a safe place for me\u2026A woman.\u201d<\/p>\n

2019 report \u2018Abuse of Faith\u2019 highlighted allegations of sexual abuse<\/h4>\n

SBC skeptics of the idea of a systemic abuse crisis often point to the numbers.<\/p>\n

A 2019 report, \u201cAbuse of Faith\u201d by the Houston Chronicle and San Antonio Express-News, found that about 380 Southern Baptist church leaders and volunteers faced allegations of sexual abuse in the previous two decades, with more than 700 victims. The newspapers drew from publicly available records, such as arrests, lawsuits and confessions.<\/p>\n

Skeptics said that for a denomination with more than 40,000 churches and millions of members, those numbers were lamentable but not symptoms of a widespread crisis.<\/p>\n

But advocates note abuse often goes unreported, particularly when the perpetrator holds a position of authority and often receives protection from other church leaders.<\/p>\n

By comparison, a on the Catholic Church, conducted by the John Jay College of Criminal Justice, benefited from access to internal church documents on cases that hadn\u2019t gone public. It found that more than 4,000 priests were accused of abuse between 1950 and 2002, about 4% of those serving then.<\/p>\n

\u201cGiven that publicly reported cases (which are based largely on criminal convictions) are the tip of the iceberg, people should be horrified at what the size of that tip reveals about how huge the whole of the SBC\u2019s clergy sex abuse iceberg almost certainly is,\u201d Brown wrote.<\/p>\n

The Guidepost report concluded that survivors repeatedly met \u201cresistance, stonewalling and even outright hostility from some\u201d in the denomination\u2019s Executive Committee. Leaders of major churches failed to report abusers to police or their congregations, the report said.<\/p>\n

Two of those named in the Guidepost report sued the SBC for defamation; their cases are pending.<\/p>\n

Critics also have challenged the report\u2019s characterization of cases involving women, contending these were consensual affairs that were sinful but not abusive. The women themselves described the actions as assaults or abuse in court depositions.<\/p>\n

But advocates for survivors say there\u2019s ample evidence of failures at high levels, even beyond Guidepost\u2019s criticisms of the Executive Committee. They cite the 2018 firing of influential seminary president Paige Patterson over his handling of rape allegations and the multiple abuse accusations against the late Paul Pressler, once a dominant force in SBC politics.<\/p>\n

North Carolina pastor Bruce Frank, who chaired the Sexual Abuse Task Force formed in the wake of the \u201cAbuse of Faith\u201d report, said survivors understandably have given up on denominational reforms.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe made some difference. It fell short of what a lot of people who suffered through that could reasonably expect,\u201d said Frank, pastor of Biltmore Church, based in Arden, North Carolina.<\/p>\n

He favored a database of credibly accused pastors to help prevent predators from moving to unsuspecting congregations.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe bottom line is, how do you protect the most people in a loosely bonded, decentralized body, in a place that heavily relies on volunteers?\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
