The Quiverfull Daughters are Tired A guest post from Abbi Nye

We were polished arrows for God, intended to fly beyond our parents’ sphere of influence.

If you lose an arrow in a battle, you don’t get it back. It’s expendable. That’s why you need a whole quiver of them.

In May 2025, he was removed as rector of Redeemer, yet there has not been a transparent process.

As the daughter of church leaders who should have reported family-controlled sex trafficking, I grieve with survivors. As an advocate, I work to end oppressive systems through education and policy change.

Mezzo Allies is doing critical work to train people around the country. I joined their board because I see the devastation that family-controlled trafficking inflicts on vulnerable children. Family-controlled trafficking and organized abuse create unique challenges for survivors.

I have worked with several survivors of family-controlled trafficking. My friend Kait Gannon is one of the most vocal survivors. She and Laurie Krull are co-founders of Mezzo Allies, a non-profit that educates people about family-controlled human trafficking.

41% of all human trafficking victims report that their exploitation began with a parent or a caregiver. When the home is the crime scene, traditional responses fall short. Survivors are criminalized, dismissed, or retraumatized.

As a mother, it is a hard truth to acknowledge that parents are the most common abusers of their children. Sex trafficking is awful. Family-controlled sex trafficking is infinitely worse—and it’s far more common than we realize.

We think that the buyers are perverted people on the outskirts of society, not the elder in our church, the volunteer fire chief in our town, the teacher at our school. We do not want to believe that our pastors and parents know about the abuse and have failed to report it.

Human trafficking is a heinous crime, but it often seems a world away. We assume that people sell the bodies of young children in other places, not in our neighborhood basements and barns.

Combating Family-Controlled Sex Trafficking Change requires collective action.

I cannot forget the moment that I asked, “Did my parents know?” and the survivor replied, “Yes, I told them.”

As the daughter of a pastor who has a PhD AND writes pamphlets like "The Full Quiver," I am in complete agreement.

Fair! I should have said "formal theological education" because a communications BA doesn't count.

This sat on my parents’ bookshelves when I was growing up. Like most Christian parenting book authors, Tomczak wrote the book when he was the parent of a toddler. His lack of practical experience or theological training didn’t prevent him from telling parents exactly what God expected them to do.

It would be easier to believe that the ACNA is actually grateful for our "faithful advocacy" if they didn't erase our labor in public.
