In this crucial episode of the All Consuming Grace Podcast, Paul and Rebecca Turner tackle one of the hardest—but most necessary—topics in their Weaponized Grace series: confronting abuse and abusers. Too often, those suffering under manipulation or control are told to simply “extend grace” or “forgive as Christ forgave,” without accountability for the abuser or protection from further abuse. But what if that’s a distorted view of grace—one that actually enables further abuse?

Paul and Rebecca unpack how a false understanding of grace has been used to silence victims, protect abusers, and fracture families. Through Scripture, they reveal how true grace—God’s transforming, truth-filled grace—never excuses sin or overlooks harm.

The episode concludes with the wisdom of Psalm 101, where David models healthy biblical boundaries: protecting himself from abusers, guarding his own heart from becoming abusive, and surrounding himself with faithful, trustworthy people.

This is a must-listen for anyone seeking healing, spiritual clarity, and stronger, grace-filled relationships. Learn how to stand firm in truth, walk in real grace, and build a home rooted in God’s righteousness and safety.

In this episode of the All-Consuming Grace Podcast, Paul and Rebecca Turner continue their eye-opening series, Weaponized Grace. Drawing from the honesty of Psalm 41 and Psalm 56, they reveal the most common tactics abusers use—tactics that often show up in homes, marriages, friendships, and even churches.

Understanding how abusers operate is the first step toward protecting your family, strengthening your relationships, and breaking unhealthy cycles. But Paul and Rebecca get more pointed: they invite you to honestly examine your own life to ensure you’re not unintentionally using these destructive patterns with the people you love most.

If you care about healthy families, safe relationships, and living out God’s grace in practical ways, this episode will equip and encourage you. Don’t miss this important conversation on recognizing abuse, guarding your home, and choosing grace-driven love over manipulation and control.

Abuse is real. It is destructive. And far too often, it hides behind religious language and misapplied Scripture. In this eye-opening series, Paul and Rebecca Turner of the All Consuming Grace Podcast confront the hard realities of abuse in the church, in relationships, and in families.

Part 1 begins with the crucial question: What is abuse? From the pages of Scripture, they highlight examples of spiritual, emotional, psychological, physical, sexual, and relational abuse, showing how these patterns have existed since the beginning.

But the heart of this conversation goes even deeper: how the very message of God’s grace—given to teach us how to live (Titus 2:11–12)—has sometimes been weaponized against victims, silencing their pain and excusing the abuser. Paul and Rebecca bring biblical clarity and compassionate truth, exposing lies that keep people in bondage and pointing back to the true purpose of grace: freedom, healing, and godly living.

If you’ve ever asked questions like:

• What does the Bible really say about abuse?

• How can grace be twisted into a tool of control?

• Where does God stand when abuse happens?

…then this episode is for you. Join the conversation and be equipped to see abuse through the lens of truth, not distortion.
