Serving a congregation after clergy misconduct can be the most dangerous ministry no one talks about.
When a beloved minister is exposed for sexual misconduct, the damage does not end with his departure. It lingers-quietly shaping decisions, distorting relationships, and setting the stage for further harm.
In Trouble in Paradise, Reverend Sarah York tells the story of her eight years as senior minister of a prominent congregation after such a betrayal. York becomes what is known as an afterpastor-a role marked by impossible expectations, buried truths, and systemic resistance to change.
With candor, compassion, and hard-won insight, York challenges the comforting myth that misconduct is rare or isolated and reveals how secrecy, misplaced loyalty, and unresolved trauma can quietly sabotage a faith community. Blending memoir and organizational wisdom, Trouble in Paradise is both a gripping personal story and a cautionary tale for religious institutions of every tradition.
