Author Description

Three women a day were killed by their intimate partners in the U.S. in 2007. So many times, people turn to their church for advice regarding an abusing spouse. Oftentimes, church members and many church leaders do not know how to address the issue and lack the ability to intervene. Till Death Do Us Part explains the dynamics of abuse, the effects of abuse, and gives practical, Biblical advice on how to make a difference and hold the abuser accountable. Church leaders are, according to the Bible, shepherds and the congregation the flock. Shepherds go to great lengths to protect their sheep. Through understanding of domestic violence, and having an awareness of the dangers that victims face, this book strives to help the church make meaningful interventions in domestic violence cases. - Publisher.
