Domestic violence is an often glossed-over danger in families today, and Christian families are not immune. The warning signs can be hidden or disregarded. Reverend Al Miles examines the problem of intimate partner abuse especially as it is recognized, and often justified, within the Christian community. This book confronts the issues surrounding family violence, its causes, and possible solutions. It also discusses how all people are affected and can help address the issue. With an honest and down-to-earth tone, this book provides guidance and information for lay people as well as for individuals experienced with the complex A practical guide to the issues surrounding family violence.
