“Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen:
to loose the chains of injustice
and untie the cords of the yoke,
to set the oppressed free
and break every yoke? Isaiah 58: 6 NIV
Dear Chapel Hill Bible Church congregants,
Maybe your fasting should include asking your elders if they have released former staff from the chains of NDAs. If not, ask them why not.
Nearly a year ago, your Personnel Policies Working Group recommended departure/severance documents “not contain any non-disclosure clauses that would prevent anyone from talking to anyone about their time at CHBC.” Ask a deacon or the elder chair whether these recommendations have been officially accepted as church policies and added to the Employee Handbook.
