Resource
Is It Abuse? A Biblical Guide to Identifying Domestic Abuse and Helping Victims
Doctrinal basis. Published by P&R, which publishes according to the Westminster Confession; written by a CCEF faculty member.
Points to weigh
- Written mainly about abuse in marriage, particularly of wives.
- If someone is in danger, contact emergency services or a domestic-violence advocate; a book is not a safety plan.
- Biblical counseling is not a substitute for medical or clinical care. If you or someone you know is in crisis or danger, call your local emergency number or, in the U.S., call or text 988.
