The primary focus of the workshop at Alberta Bible College will be on the specific analysis of spiritual abuse within our evangelical Christian community. This generic overview will explore abuse from key leadership positions as well as from those who feel victimised by the abuser. The conference will highlight the need for indentification of abuse, empirical evidence for it, intervention, and subsequently remedial help for both the abuser and the one who has been abused. Keynote speakers: R. Wayne Lewry - Associate Pastor Central United Church Calgary & Tom King M.S.W R.S.W Clinical Services Counselor, Thomas King & Associates Calgary
