Check out this heart-wrenching discussion between two men – one a survivor of clergy abuse, and one a former priest.
–––
The former priest, Bob Hoatson, was kicked out of his ministry when he spoke up too loudly against cover-ups of sexual abuse in the Catholic Church. Only then did he find his true calling – working with survivors of clerical abuse.
“I’m being called a disturbed priest, or a crazy former priest,” he says. “I am absolutely a pariah to most of the clergy anywhere.”
