Synopsis

How does a marriage brimming with love and promise devolve into a battlefield of control and pain? How can a person who once vowed before God to love their spouse for better or worse take on the mantle of a controlling narcissist? Unfortunately, this is the reality for many marriages today. Is there any hope for healing and reconciliation for those facing such suffering? The loud clarion answer from the secular world is a resounding, “No!” Sadly, this same negative answer has become commonly integrated into many Christian counseling models.

Drawing from decades of experience as both an attorney and pastor, Don Thomas confronts the stark realities of abusive marriages. With a steadfast commitment to sola scriptura, he challenges the church's drift away from its biblical moorings to increasingly conform to the latest social construct. He carefully picks up the lens of sola scripture to guide you through the fog of conflict to find answers to such questions as:

  • What truly constitutes spousal abuse?
  • How can the safety and well-being of suffering partners be safeguarded?
  • Is change possible for the abuser?
  • Is abuse a new biblical ground for divorce?
This insightful guide doesn’t stop at questions – it offers solutions. Explore how Biblical counselors along with the local churches can provide meaningful support to both victims and perpetrators of abuse, fostering an environment of hope and reconciliation.
