Episode description

When power causes leaders and others in positions of influence to lose their moral compasses, the trail of pain and destruction is devastating – How do we heal?

This week on Context – abuse in the halls of power and influence.
From preachers to politicians, even inside the church.
The immoral behaviors by some of the leaders in positions of power continues to erode the trust of the institutions that many people once embraced.
In fact, Time Magazine reports that the year 2020 ushered in “an epidemic of misinformation and widespread mistrust of societal institutions and leaders around the world.”

This week on the program – when abuse of power goes so far as to cause people to want to end their lives.

How do we heal?
