In this straightforward, practical book they supply the answer to the questions you face:
- How do I know I need help?
- How much of my story should I tell?
- Where do I find spiritual support as a victim of abuse?
- What help can I find in the community?
- How do I get started on the healing journey?
- What key steps will I need to take to get on with my life?
- How can I understand what help my abuser needs?
- How do I learn to trust God again?
Their advice is solid, backed up by Nason-Clark's professional expertise as a sociologist and Kroeger's as a biblical scholar. Together they supply both here-and-now, step-by-step advice you need to start the healing journey and biblical insights to nourish your soul and sustain you on the path to wholeness.
