Description

There's a silent epidemic creeping through the church. And it's not pretty. Statistics tell us that one in four highly religious marriages in the United States have abuse in them, although few are willing to admit it. Pastors don't see it and aren't trained to deal with it; fellow parishioners may not notice something is wrong; and the Christian woman trapped in such a situation may not realize that what she's experiencing is actually abuse.

Author Rebecca Commean knows this well. She sensed something was wrong but couldn't quite put her finger on it. Her husband was controlling, he lied, he gaslighted her, he meted out small sums of money to run the household of nine children. But he was a different guy at church. At church, people loved and revered him, and the church leaders told her to, above all else, to submit to him. When she finally asked herself the question Is this Domestic Abuse? her eyes were opened, and she knew she had to do better for herself and her children.

This handbook for Christian women will help you to evaluate your own situation and, if warranted, it will show you how to protect yourself and your children from what could become a dangerous and deadly situation. Commean has covered every step of the extraction process and provides numerous resources to help you help yourself.
