Cover Up Culture Versus Exposure Culture

The scandals in the charismatic movement have us examining: what is the difference between cover up culture and exposure culture? What is the biblical response? How do we stay in the radical middle, fostering a culture of transparency and accountability that listens to victims and doesn't hide predators without developing a culture of witch hunt? Joshua Lewis, Michael Miller & Michael Rowntree explore biblical principles for a healthy church and practical steps to build cultures of transparency that honor Scripture.
