If you’ve been told that staying married “for the kids” is the most loving choice you can make, this episode will challenge everything you thought you knew about protecting your children.

The truth is, emotional and spiritual abuse doesn’t just harm you, it rewires your children’s brains, damages their attachment systems, and poisons their relationship with God. Research shows that staying in a high-conflict, abusive marriage can be up to 10 times more damaging to children than divorce. And when abuse is wrapped in religious language, the harm multiplies. Your kids aren’t just losing safety, they’re losing their ability to experience God as loving and trustworthy.
