Each year three to four million women are severely assaulted by their husbands, ex-husbands or boyfriends. Battery is the single major cause of injury to women. And Christians are not exempt. Women are being choked, spat upon, hit, pushed, bitten, dragged by the hair and kicked -- by Christian husbands. Unfortunately, the church has all too often ignored this uncomfortable subject. Citing their finding from extensive research and summarizing eight years of interviews with victims, abusers, and pastors, James and Phyllis Alsdurf provide a comprehensive treatment of this troubling topic. They show the psychological, spiritual and personal impact of wife abuse and call the church to reexamine its role in addressing the issue. 248.843 Perpustakaan STTB Bandung Theological Seminary 248.843 Als b E07004350 Non Fiction 248.843 Als b Battered_into_Submission.jpg 62094 2014-12-16 13:36:58 2025-09-24 17:09:46 machine generated
