Synopsis

Back Cover Summary

Domestic abuse concealed within the fabric of Christian life is often foreign to both leadership and laity alike. With a focus on abused wives, What Can I Do to Help Lazarus? compassionately gives spiritual and practical ways for leaders and fellow believers to better minister to women whose spouse has cruelly torn apart the marriage covenant. With sensitivity, scripture, and wisdom, the author also brings needed validation to the targets of purposed evil in the institution God designed to be a woman's sanctuary-marital oneness.

What Can I Do to Help Lazarus? was written as a short article for abuse survivors reading a Christian domestic abuse support site. Reader comments were extremely positive and, with the Lord's inspiration, the author expanded the content.

"Yes! YES! Yeeeeesssss! I will be sharing this with many church friends who are absolutely clueless. Thank you for articulating this so well."

"Eyes that see and a heart of mercy! So rare!"

"There is something about how you write that seeps like water through porous soil. Perhaps your words speak so clearly because they do not yell..."

"I don't think there was a single line that didn't make the tears fall a little harder at each one...tears of 'she gets it'.
