We are requesting a third-party investigation because we believe it is important for a neutral and professional organization—one that knows how to handle situations and allegations like this—to be involved. We believe that GRACE (Godly Response to Abuse in the Church Environment) meets this criteria. If there is anything you would like to share with us, you are welcome to do so, but we want to emphasize that you should not feel any obligation or pressure to share out of a sense that you “should.”
It would be great to hear from you if you’d be willing to speak to GRACE (if they are hired) about your experience to help in an investigation.
