Serpents In the Garden

The stories in this book are real as far as I know because not all of them came to me first hand. Those that did or the ones I personally knew about I can vouch for. As someone who went to Bible College and spent years as both a layman and ministerial worker in various churches, I heard each of them first hand from either the victim or the perpetrator. Be aware that although I have avoided the use of any sort of foul language or sexual slurs, the accounts of sexual abuse you will read about are real and graphic. I believe they must be in order to bring incidents like these to light and give them credibility. Trust has come too easy in churches and many people have paid the price for that. My own faith was tested over and over again as I came across these horrifying incidents that occurred in churches where I worshiped and worked, as well as others I learned about that occurred in other locations.
