159 – Even Unto Death? Religiously Reckless

It is true that Christians tend to stay in abusive marriages longer than non-Christians. We believe much of the reason is unreasonable and reckless “biblical” views. In this episode we share some of what we’ve come across in our ministry. Although some scenarios are extreme, and some may sound frivolous, the underlying problems are the same. 1) Too often there is more concern for the institution of marriage than there is for the abused people within the marriage, and 2) there is more pressure put on the wife to “fix” the problems, as in to submit more, pray more, and be more patient – sometimes even unto death.
