This week's episode features audio from a workshop with Mary Frances Giles called, "What Does the Bible Have to Tell us About Sexual Harassment and #MeToo?"

Over the course of the past two years, the #MeToo movement has catapulted sexual harassment and assault, primarily against women, to the forefront of our cultural awareness. There appears to be a shift occurring in our collective American consciousness. Acts of sexual harassment and assault that have been historically overlooked are now being publicly discussed and confronted. This workshop will explore the issues and questions brought forth by this cultural moment from both theological and sociological perspectives.

Mary Frances Giles has worked for L’Abri in Southborough since 2010. A native of Tennessee, she has lived in the greater Boston area for over 20 years and is a member of Park Street Church in Boston. She received a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Georgia and a Masters Degree from Boston University, both in the area of speech-language pathology.

She worked as a pediatric speech pathologist for over ten years in both schools and hospitals in the Boston area before moving into the non-profit sector. At L’Abri, Mary Frances’ interests lean toward the relationship between the Christian faith and practical daily life, and how our personal stories intersect with the larger story God is writing for the world.

When she’s not at L’Abri you are most likely to find her at the beach, kayaking, exploring new restaurants with friends, or searching for that ever-elusive perfect shade of lipstick.
