Bullied and Abused Lives in Ministry (BALM) is for anyone who has been bullied or abused while involved in Christian ministry (in any denomination worldwide) to enable mutual support and understanding of the trauma experienced. The list is also open to immediate family members who have been affected by such bullying either directly or indirectly.
In the longer term it is hoped that this list will help in raising awareness of the plight of ministers abused in the church.
