Rob McConnell Interviews - SCOTT EDELSTEIN - Sexual Abuse and Spiritual Teachers
Published 6 months ago
Description
In this deeply important and courageous episode, Scott Edelstein confronts a troubling and often hidden issue: sexual abuse and misconduct within spiritual and religious teaching environments. Drawing on research, case studies, and survivor-informed perspectives, Edelstein examines how positions of spiritual authority can be manipulated, how abuse is enabled by silence and misplaced trust, and why victims are so often discouraged from speaking out. This conversation focuses on awareness, accountability, ethical leadership, and the urgent need for transparency within spiritual communities. It is an essential discussion for anyone seeking to understand the difference between authentic spiritual guidance and harmful abuse of power—and how to protect the vulnerable while restoring integrity to spiritual practice.
