"This book takes a holistic approach by providing insight into the behavior and nature
of sex offenders within the church. The text covers various types of sex offenders
as well as their criminal propensities and methods of acquiring victims. Warning signs
associated with sex crimes within the church are explained as well as security measures
and prevention strategies that church leaders and criminal justice professionals can
utilize to minimize risk to congregants. Discussion questions and case study scenarios
are provided to allow the reader to examine relevant issues and explore a range of
potential solutions and interventions. This comprehensive book is intended for criminal
justice academicians who teach courses on sex crimes and sex offenders, criminal justice
agents (police and investigators), seminary professors and students, and clergy members.
It can also assist security teams, church board members, leaders, and teachers in
developing intervention and prevention strategies"
