In this special episode, I dig into the sensitive topic of abusive relationships and the misconception that God hates divorce. Despite the advice to avoid discussing religion and politics, I believe it's essential to talk about this issue, especially as a coach helping women heal after abusive and narcissistic relationships. It's TIME!
While the Bible acknowledges divorce as a reality, it doesn't promote it, but God's grace understands human struggles, especially in abusive situations. It's necessary to seek guidance from trusted individuals before making such significant decisions and to listen to God's guidance. Ultimately, the podcast encourages you to prioritize safety, well-being, and self-worth, and to leave abusive relationships, as God hates abuse more than divorce.
Bible Verses Mentioned:
Ephesians 5:25: "Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her."
Colossians 3:19: "Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them."
Ephesians 5:22-24: "Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord."
