Would you know if someone were abusing you? “I didn’t know the cycle of abuse, or that it’s normal to feel guilt for something that’s not your fault, to have complex emotions about your abuser as you heal. I learned that I could set boundaries, choose not to reconcile, and still pursue the internal freedom of forgiveness.” – Tricia Lott Williford

Sexual abuse in marriage is any form of sexual acts that uses force, trickery, or manipulation.
Sexual abuse can look like withholding sex as a form of punishment. The abuser might refuse or threaten to remove sex if they don’t get their way. Withholding sex is a weapon to establish or maintain dominance. Using sex as a weapon to control is sexual abuse.
Sexual abuse can also look like marital rape. Any time one spouse is not in agreement or has not willingly engaged in a sexual act, it is rape. It is any sexual act committed against a spouse’s will. The abuser may use physical force, threats of force, or psychological force, fear, or manipulation to engage in marital rape. 1 in 10 spouses are raped by their spouse. Any sexual act should be mutually consented - any time it is not, it is sexual abuse.
Sexual abuse may also look like criticizing your physical appearance. Abusers might use offensive language about your body or your physical appearance. Abusers might use offensive language about your body or your appearance to undermine your self-worth. This is not love, it is a form of sexual abuse.
Sexual abuse might also look like unwanted aggression during sexual acts. Hitting, choking, or using any type of force is also sexual abuse.
SPIRITUAL ABUSE
Spiritual abuse is using Scripture, biblical concepts or belief systems to control, manipulate, or enforce power over anot

Emotional abuse involves controlling another person by using emotions to criticize, embarrass, shame, blame, or otherwise manipulate them. It can be subtle and insidious, but it can also be overt and manipulative. The goal of the emotional abuser is to control and have power over their spouse.
Emotional abuse might look like one spouse isolating the other spouse, taking away their network of support. The abuser might feel insecure or afraid of their spouse leaving them or finding or thinking anything different than the abuser, so the abuser attempts to keep them isolated, away from the influence of others. Any time a spouse prevents their spouse from support networks and controls who they can and cannot be with, or when and how they can be with them, this is emotional abuse.
Emotional abuse might also look like the abusive spouse making threats. The abuser might threaten a certain type of consequence be inflicted, they might threaten to leave, to withhold finances or information, they might withhold sex or affection, a car, a place to stay, the abuser might threaten sharing false information with family or friends, or with an attorny - or they might threaten taking the kids away, or they might threaten self harm or suicide. Any type of threat is emotional abuse.
Emotional abuse could also be yelling or name calling. Statements such as “You’re so dumb. You’re fat. You're a freak. You’re an idot.” Or any verbal outbursts - this is emotional abuse.
It might also look like gaslighting. Gaslighting is when the abuser makes the victim question their reality to gain power and control. It’s a way to create doubt and confusion. The victim will typically make a statement, and the abuser w

When you suffer a loss, you enter the realm of "used to be." You used to be part of a community. You used to be employed. You used to be pregnant, secure, healthy, sober. You used to be a son or daughter, a brother or sister, a mother or father, a husband or wife. And in that used-to-be space, you can feel stuck. How can we navigate loss and find a path forward?

Fidelity is the state of being faithful; so any time there is anything hidden, there is infidelity. A big theme that is consistent with evil is that those who are doing evil want to hide. Coming into the light is where we find healing and wholeness, because our nature is to hide and stay in shame. So how can we do that? We sit down with Christian Counselor Todd Webb and hear from his years of counseling couples walking through infidelity and coming out on the other side. This conversation is INCREDIBLE and we pray it blesses you and those you love!

In our social media–driven world, it’s easy to think that everyone else has it together in their marriages and to wonder if maybe you made a mistake. The truth is, most couples don’t enter marriage with the communication or attachment skills needed to deal with the integration of two lives. In this amazing conversation with Kari Trent Stageberg, we'll learn what it means to “merge” and the damaging effects of not dealing with differences early in a marriage; the seven predictable areas of conflict; a practical, powerful plan for dealing with differences with one’s partner; and how to help another couple walk through the merge process.

What if that hard thing you’re going through is not happening to you but for you?
You’ve tried it all—saying the right words and prayers, reading the right Bible verses—but nothing seems to work. What do you do when your faith doesn’t seem to be “working” anymore?
Join us as we sit down with Ashley Morgan Jackson to hear about her book, Tired of Trying. You’ll learn to:
- break out of the cycle of frustration by saying yes to wrestling;
- identify the lies you are believing about God, yourself, and your circumstances and replace them with truth;
- shift your perspective so you can choose faith, persevere, and discover God’s purpose for you.

We can get so used to 'busy' and being distracted that we live in a constant state of exhaustion. We can also use busyness as a way to numb ourselves against the things that are our greatest struggles or fears. But what happens when we actually decide to live like Jesus and live a rhythm of slow? We experience the beauty in Matthew 11:28-30, "Matthew 11:28-30 “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”
