Things like this don't happen in Christian homes. It comes as a surprise to many that sexual abuse is prevalent and far-reaching.
Sexual abuse happens to children and teenagers of every class, culture, race, religion.
Both males and females are victims of abuse, and Christian families are not exempt. Children are abused by immediate family members, relatives, family friends, boyfriends, babysitters, neighbors, teachers, and strangers. Sexual abuse by siblings is more common than many people believe. Some perpetrators are recognized as upstanding members of society and may be well-known leaders in the community or church.
