How close to the core of my heart this hits. Everything said I could relate to after the failure of the church to validate me as a person severely wounded and hurt. Yet in their failure Christ put a lot of balm on those painful places and opened many doors for me both physically and financially. I often wanted to help other women who were suffering, but was discouraged against this. Now after listening to this program new hope is rising in me. I prayerfully submit that your ministry will continue to take on the hard things others have side-swiped and not white-wash it to fill the pews or pay off the building fund, but go into those places where the heart of Christ bleeds for His people. Thank you for your sensitivity for diving in the deep end!

I can't believe that I have found Christian leaders who understand the plight of a woman caught in the cycle of domestic violence. I have been with my husband for 25 years and sought help for 25 years. I have spoken to countless of pastors, leaders, counselors, speakers, authors, friends, etc. and the counsel did not include an awareness of domestic abuse. Indeed, some of the counsel led to further victimisation. I am only now starting to heal, having been led by God Himself to a journey that has broken down my wrong thinking of what the Bible says about marriage. It is scary because many of my mainstream Christian friends do not see it. But to find people who validate that experience is gold. For a Christian woman, the tears over her broken soul are only matched by the tears of being let down by the community she has valued and anchored herself in. I not only have to deal with the end of my marriage, I also have to face being abandoned and misunderstood by my faith family.
