EXPOSED: The Safeguarding Failure of the Church of England with Rev Stephen Kuhrt

Why do Church of England apologies often feel like empty words? In this interview, I sit down with Rev Stephen Kuhrt to discuss the systemic failures exposed in his book, "Sound Asleep." We investigate why apologies regarding the Jonathan Fletcher scandal have failed to address the root culture of abuse and cover-up within the Anglican Church. Stephen explains the concept of "The Network"—an informal conservative evangelical power structure that often wields more influence than bishops—and why it has been so difficult to hold accountable. We also discuss the limitations of the 31:8 review and why the Church cannot be trusted to mark its own homework when it comes to safeguarding.
