Sexual Harassment and Affair Talk at "Christianity Today" - Divorce Minister

Skip to content

“Women at CT were touched at work in ways that made them uncomfortable. They heard men with authority over their careers make comments about the sexual desirability of their bodies. And in at least two cases, they heard department heads hint at openness to an affair.”

-Daniel Silliman in “Sexual Harassment Went Unchecked at Christianity Today.

Silliman’s article “Sexual Harassment Went Unchecked at Christianity Today” dropped yesterday, March 15, 2022, about Christianity Today’s toxic work culture.

This is significant news for the evangelical Christian world as CT is the major reporting venue for evangelicals. (Or at least, it was.)

I am glad they are exposing these issues to the light, finally.

Such issues strike me as an illustration as to why my blog’s tagline: “Taking Adultery Seriously” is even a radical position among “Christian” leaders. Clearly, it would have been radical at CT during the years of these behaviors.

How do we hold our churches accountable when the institution (media) used to do this, in part, was led by men who apparently welcomed engaging in affairs?!

It is worth considering this.

That said, I am glad they are exposing this to the light and not hiding it anymore. It is a step in the right direction. Still, “Taking Adultery Seriously” remains, sadly, a radical position.
