The church is the support network during life's storms. But when the storm comes from within the church, then what? The church has been the predator's hiding place for many years, but many don't know that victims can be either gender and any age. Society is just beginning to realize that the term 'pastoral affair' is a misnomer and a more accurate term is 'professional exploitation,' or a violation of the congregant's trust. Clarion was counseled by her pastor who targeted her during a major transition in her life. Her account reveals the grooming process typical of all predators, and leaves no stone unturned in exposing their modus operandi. Having survived the exploitation followed by the sting of indifference from her former pastor and church, Clarion now has the insight to help churches deal with this often misunderstood and unresolved abuse. Drowned in Living Water is both preventive medicine for churches and healing balm for the wounds of fellow survivors. *ALL author royalties go to AdvocateWeb.org.

A book of poems born from the anguish of professional exploitation; namely, clergy sexual abuse. Written by a woman who was counseled by her pastor during a major transition in her life. Her pastor was a predator who used his charisma and Biblical authority - along with speed seduction techniques - to deceive and exploit her in therapy. She published her poems to encourage other victims (women, children and men) who have experienced the same form of abuse, from sexual harassment to full exploitation. Victims' family members, advocates, and churches will be touched by the way Clarion mixes raw emotion with intelligent lyrics to convey the serious ramifications of this betrayal of trust and abuse of power. This is sure to change the negative way victims over 18 are perceived and shed light on why the church is the 'safest place' for predators to go undetected. Pastors who prey upon their congregants are utterly exposed within these 50 pages. *ALL author royalties go to TheHopeofSurvivors.com.
