Man sounds off about his #MeToo firing from SBC entity last year

After high profile dismissal from his post in 2018, now claims what happened was the woman perpetrated on him "a completely nonconsensual, unwanted sexual assault that has left me traumatized to this day":

My story, of being sexual assaulted by a woman

"Editor’s Note — The Alabama Baptist is allowing anonymity for the source of this first-person article in keeping with common journalistic practices of not publicizing victims of sexual assault. TAB leadership knows the source and his family, has confidence in his interpretation of the situation"

"It has been a year ago now that news of my termination from a Southern Baptist institution was made public"

.....

"[After] I became compliant to her demands....the assailant [contacted] my boss and he was sent evidence of what appeared to be an affair. Within hours, and under the threat of a public scandal, my boss brought me into his office, told me my service with the institution was over and handed me a pre-written letter of resignation. I refused to sign it and explained I had been sexually assaulted"

"'What in the world does that mean?' he asked. I explained again I had been sexually assaulted and did not have an affair. He told me to stop lying and that truth and repentance were the only two words that mattered. Determined to bring me to a point of repentance he began listing the names of all the people and Christian ministries I had disappointed with my 'adultery'."

"Anything I said was seen only as evidence of unrepentance so I finally gave up. Under more duress than I have ever felt in my life I...signed the prepared statement of resignation, admitting to a 'moral delinquency' that disqualified me from ministry. At the end of our brief meeting my boss told me to exit the building through the back door so his secretary wouldn’t have to look at me."

"My speaking invitations were canceled. My articles and chapters were pulled from various publications. I was stripped of publishing contracts for nearly a dozen books and, now unemployed, had to repay thousands of dollars in book advances."

"As word of my resignation quickly spread, my wife and I received hundreds of emails, text messages and phone calls....With every buzz of the phone came a fresh layer of trauma. With every new article published about me online I felt the assault happening over and over again....my wife and I saw a very different side of the Church we love and have served for so many years — it was a Church that not only shoots her wounded, but often does the wounding as well."
