This webinar provides an overview of domestic violence including its prevalence, forms of abuse, its basis in power and control, its impact on children cultural barriers to accessing mainstream services, why victims remain in abusive relationships, concepts of prayer and forgiveness, and the spiritual aloneness a victim feels who believes God has abandoned her.

The webinar will end with suggested actions we can take to ensure we respond in helpful, not hurtful ways, including what to say to someone who is or we think is being abused, helping a victim increase her safety and that of her children, and how to find local domestic violence programs that can help a victim decide what she is willing and able to do.

This webinar originally aired on February 24, 2015.
