Some conservative Christians teach that God puts women in abusive marriages so they can better glorify Him through their suffering. What kind of a god requires the suffering of women and children in order to be glorified?
It took you years, decades maybe, to understand what you were going through.
It’s no wonder your kids don’t recognize emotional abuse for what it is.
Especially because they’re wired to trust their dad. They’re wired to need his love.
So they still call him good, loving even. They still think you and their dad should be together.
You know better.
And it’s agony.
What now?
“I’ll never heal.”
Has that thought ever crossed your mind?
There’s too much pain. Too much trauma stored in your body. Too many horrible memories trapped in your mind. It’s an ocean to cross, and you’re just treading water.
You need deep internal healing.
In this episode, learn how to plunge into the depths of your most profound anguish productively and safely.
Do you picture yourself and your children begging on the streets if you dare to leave?
Are you overwhelmed at the thought of making ends meet as a single mom?
Do you wonder how you’ll pay for groceries, much less legal fees, if you escape?
One of the biggest fears for women in abusive marriages is that they won’t survive financially.
And it’s a fear based on a lot of truth.
But it’s not the final say.
Hear from a woman who’s been there, done, and literally wrote a book on it. So don’t turn back.
Put your stretchy pants on, cause this episode’s a three-course dinner on what NOT to do once you realize your marriage is a hamster wheel of emotional abuse.
These three mistakes caused me greater pain, for much longer. But I didn’t know then what I know now. Because when we KNOW differently, we DO differently.
And that’s what Flying Free is all about.
Abusers are terrified. They mask their fear with rage, manipulation, false piety, and good ole-fashioned bullying.
If they’re actually weak, scared babies, how are they so powerful and unchecked in churches (and in marriages)?
Because you’re afraid too. And you’re also really good at pretending. All while being destroyed.
It doesn’t have to be this way anymore, and I can show you how…to fly free.
