“This marvelous collection reminds me how much I have learned (and am still learning) from my Jewish sisters. Thank you for sharing your stories and wisdom with us.”
Counseling, Grief & Mental Health
“No woman should be forced to choose between the safety of a shelter and the support of her church when she experiences domestic terror. She needs and deserves both. This is our job as Christian leaders: to ensure that she is safe and supported and has the resources to protect herself and her children. We need to assure her that God and the Bible are with her in her hour of need. Jesus unequivocally calls us to be the Good Samaritan to the battered woman and her children. In this book, Rev. Al Miles shows us the way.”
Ending Violence in Teen Dating Relationships
Counseling, Grief & Mental Health
“If you are a parent or youth minister, please read this book. Al Miles is telling the truth about teenagers' lives and loves. 'You shall know the truth and the truth will make you flinch — before it sets you free.' As parents and pastors we owe it to our youth to understand the challenges of their relationships and how we can help. Al Miles leads us through this minefield with compassion and a critical eye. Thanks be to God.”
Sexual Abuse in Christian Homes and Churches
Counseling, Grief & Mental Health
Foreword
“Heggen's book is long overdue. For Christians who are willing to stop and listen to victims, this is a valuable resource. For victims or perpetrators who have been waiting for the church to listen, this is a word of possibility.”
The Trauma of Sexual and Domestic Violence
Counseling, Grief & Mental Health
“Sharon Ellis Davis uses autobiography to educate her audience about the truth and trauma of sexual and domestic violence. Hers is a painful and powerful journey shared by too many women of faith. It is a remarkable story of a remarkable woman’s strength and courage. She battles not only the abusive men in her life but also the church and herself. Reader, be aware: the truth will make you flinch before it sets you free.”
Counseling, Grief & Mental Health
Foreword
“Perhaps the most powerful message we can receive from these women is their profound faithfulness, courage, and resilience. . . . Many of them have stood up to the powers and principalities of the church, and have asked for what is rightfully theirs, and have refused to be silent or to disappear. They are, for me, quintessential witnesses to the gospel.”
Counseling, Grief & Mental Health
“Finally a comprehensive resource for pastoral care in response to the trauma of woman-battering. Theologically grounded and practically applied, Woman Batteringis the perfect combination to equip pastors and pastoral men. Every Christian minister needs this book in order to understand women-battering in the context of our religious and social culture.”
