Churches: reaping what they sow?

The Courage to Heal is often described as the 'bible' of the recovered memories movement.
It doesn't seem like a text that churches would be promoting, given the harm that has resulted over the years.
But curiously, here it is for sale in a Catholic bookshop and a Baptist bookshop. It can be found in others too.
It's even one of the 'useful books' listed in the Church of England's official Child Protection Policy.
Perhaps church leaders have been influenced by glowing reviews like the one at heartless-bitches.com
