As a therapist, I frequently encounter clients who are trapped in marriages that are marked by emotional, physical, sexual, or verbal abuse. Specifically, Christian women often hold onto a strict interpretation of their biblical duties as wives and feel compelled to remain in these harmful relationships. They might claim that they are not inclined to issue ultimatums, but the reality is that they, along with their children, are enduring homes filled with conflict and distress. This book has equipped me with the necessary language to assist them in making more responsible choices, while also providing a spiritual foundation that they can share with their pastors or religious leaders, who may discourage them from assertively asserting their rights or addressing their needs.
I strongly suggest this book to any Christian woman who is facing a challenge of feeling guilty and torn between biblical responsibilities, what is right and wrong, and her own safety. After reading this, I am now more determined to put effort into improving my marriage by establishing healthy boundaries, even when it seemed impossible before.
