Yes!! They can flip anything you say sincerely around, turning it on you, then come out looking like a saint! It's narcissism and gas lighting at its finest!! Once I went to see a friend and when I got home I was so happy to see my 1st husband (we ended up divorcing), that I gave him a rose. He immediately started asking, "Did you cheat on me?" I was simply happy to see him, and no, I did not cheat on him. I learned later he had been cheating on me! That's why he thought I was doing it, because he was. There was all kinds of abuse in that relationship, and this is just one example of it.

I read Darby's book a few years ago, after leaving a marriage of 27 years, and six children. I never asked for help, because I in such denial about the things my ex-husband was doing/saying to me. When my eldest daughter helped me and my youngest leave, my ex went on a full-blown smear campaign, and the former friends at my church seemed to count me as the one who was to blame. It has been heartbreaking. Still no pastoral help being offered. My ex still attends church, and that is how he keeps his false-persona alive. I felt she did a beautiful job of opening up the difficult and confusing nuances of domestic abuse in Christian marriages. Thank you, Darby.

I went to my church several times in regards to my marriage problems. There was one incident of physical abuse, they knew of. There was also rampant verbal, and emotional abuse, which they knew of. They were not helpful, and told me I needed to work on my forgiveness. When I finally told them I needed to separate from my husband because he was unrepentant, and refused to get help. They cut me loose and offered no more help to me. I was left on my own. I left my church which was difficult, but their treatment of me, made it easier.

@@beautifulheart7 I agree with you. In my last email to my pastor, I voiced my concerns over women that were far more abused than me in our church, that were told they needed to work on their forgiveness, or, like me, were left on their own, when they decided to separate from their husbands. :(

Exactly my situation. My spouse is a respected [person in the community. It was hard to talk to any Pastor and when I found one, we had a dinner and my husband stormed out of the restaurant, pushing me. The Pastor saw it and got frightened saying “has he done this before? Is he going to get into the car and get hurt? He never brought anything up and we left while after. Even a Christian friend told me I just have to focus on ,my life and respond differently, that its up to ME to change the abuse. The church has a hard time calling out sin.
@jodie3671

Abuse is not always physical. Abuse is being ignored, not being validated, not being supported on an emotional level, being excluded from decision making and money matters. Being counter parented, being critisized, not being seen and acknowledged. Not spending time with me. Not listening to me. Not buying me flowers. Not helping me in and around the house. Not honoring your word. Not keeping your promises. Being absent throughout the marriage. Being a complete covert manipulator. Narcissism should be declared a criminal offence. For 25 years he treated me this way.

Many people in an abusive marriage, myself included, don't tell family and friends what's going on behind closed doors. I'm surprised this didn't come up in the conversation. I minimized things for a lot of reasons. It was just over a year ago when I finally left, and it was then that I started telling the people who cared about me what was really happening.

Many times, the abused is so worn down and stressed for so many years, that they become an angry person, while the abuser, many times a narcissist is admired by all. That put the abused in a position to not be believed that they are the ones suffering, so when they try and tell close friends, they wont be believed or they are told that THEY need to change. Especially if you are in the church and try and get council from Pastors, who are men, who are ill equipped to challenge the abuser. They just dont want to get involved so you suffer in silence. They say “you just have to change your response. Its how you respond that will determine the abuse”/ Women are victimized even more.

Yes, this was disappointing. First she says you have to be careful to label it abuse and use that word, then her recommendation is to find a friend to read the book for you. I don’t know anyone who would do that for anyone else. So now you are depending on the friend. When she says before that that the friends give advice.. and wrong advice…I guess it sells books.

When dealing with a narcissist it's close to impossible for them to repent. It's especially hard and confusing to the spouse when that person is in ministry, preaching God's Word. Yet, they don't live it. Ppl that don't have narcissist as a spouse never understand. Most marriage seminars and counseling does not deal with narcissist. All married ppl have issues at some point and time. But "normal" ppl eventually can work through it because they are convicted at some point. But narcissist don't have conviction or empathy. Christian narcissist are the worse, they hide behind the Word, grace, mercy, and the Blood of Jesus ONLY when it comes to them.

Not everyone will understand or believe that it is possible for a marriage to have abuse especially when the couple is very much involved in the church.

The roles in our marriage has changed I am a Christian and my husband became born again through our marriage. He was like what got into all of a sudden that you just are always fighting and arguing. I told him I always had these thoughts I just never voiced them before. As I became more outspoken with others he became more critical because he was always wanting to debate. If I did not agree things escalated. I walked away because agree to disagree is fine with me. His behavior was loud demanding controlling and push me I would push back he has never punched me but yes it was abuse. He is in counseling and I am beginning counseling.

Usually the abuser will never get counseling. They are always right. Its great he is getting help. I have tried fr 32 years and mine will at times admit he has an anger problem but do nothing about it. I understand the only way they will do something is threatening to leave and sticking to your guns. I have come to this point many times but then its Ok for awhile. A proud man will also not be in the word, pray with their wife, or study the Bible. He can be on the TV 10 hours a day watching Godless movies. And he will never be challenged if he is a believer,. He is deceived.

The man servws himself once then went for a second. When I asked if the wife had eaten, he said that she was taking care of the baby while he ate then she would eat once he was done. I was shocked. When I later talked to my husband, he laughed incessantly. I wondered what kind of men we have in today's age. Did I misunderstand anything?

Leadership persons who are not trained to counsel those facing ongoing abuse, often fail to upgrade the counseling to someone more educated/skilled who could confront the problems as needed. Just being told to "participate in ____ class" or to go through it again until something changes, or perhaps to "pray more" is to fail to support the man or woman asking for help. It is adding on to their problem and leaving them feeling hopeless and confused. Some turn their backs on their faith as a result.

I personally know a lot of emotionally abusive women whose husband's cow-tow to them. Also, most of these men have pretty bad health, and some have died prematurely from sudden cancer or something similar. I believe that is due to the stress they are under from their wives. So even though the abuse is not "physical," per se, it is very physical.

Thinks it's ok to be friends with unmarried female, because they are not doing anything, will delete texts that are from her. Always has to bring up something that will cause me to be defensive. Then tells me I'm not respecting him, and that I need to not argue it and just be quiet and accept what he is saying. He has had a mutual female friend send a video to tell me that true love cooks, true love cleans. I don't like living this way, but have no way to change it, since I have no grounds for divorce. I think about it, but I still have two young children that I don't want to rock their world. He doesn't ever think he is being unreasonable. Which is his favorite phrase.

I think the percentage of abusive relationships is very skewed. Women may be the victims a larger percentage than men, but men will hide the abuse more than women will. I have a very abusive and hot-tempered wife, and it's very frustrating knowing that society expects men to just take the abuse, as it is not deemed to be so serious. When other men might get just an angry tone of voice, I will often get slaps and punches from my wife...for the smallest of things. She always has an excuse for her destructive behavior, and I don't know what to do. I cannot get help/advice from online sources because too many people (like the narrators in this video) assume it is not a real problem. I have come so very close to leaving this marriage because of her anger issues. She claims and often acts like a Christian, but never when she is angry. She scorns what the Bible says about the issue and tries to put fault squarely on my shoulders.

You are probably married to an unsaved woman. Complete disregard for what Scripture says is almost always a dead certain giveaway that your spouse has never had a genuine conversion, thus is not saved. If you have a pastor, tell them exactly what is going on. If they blow you off, leave that church. You should probably leave the relationship as well.

Wow this perspective is important, as a law enforcement officer, I have seen a feminist trend to label everything as abuse so as to emasculate the role and dynamics of men and leadership. It's not something to ignore but it's not something to make something out of something it is not.

This surprises me. More often what I see from the world is a minimizing the abuse. Saying things like she is just being feminist. If she is being hit, If there is gaslighting, dominant Lording over someone, name calling, talking down to someone. This is abuse.

Under conservatism women are viewed as private property (Think of how they are listed with to possessions in the 10 commandments) Under liberalism women are viewed as public property. My mother was abused based off of the teachings of Focus on The Family / Christian Patriarchy and is now experiencing grave mental illness as a result of the trauma inflicted upon her of having her true personhood denied ( and still so ) by my father. This embrace of male supremacy will continue to wreck countless more lives unless we stand up and stop it in its tracks.

Remember, he doesn't need to hit you if you know and he knows that he can put you in the hospital. If he lifts his fist to you that's abuse. If he tells you that he can put you in the hospital and you know it, that's abuse.

I’m not negating what women are feeling. Everytime I watch about these videos is about how men are abusive. As if it’s never the woman. The problem is the man won’t come here if he is being abused or suffered abuse. Men are expected to deal with all the emotional part of a woman but women are not also taking care of their own emotional need.

You are correct ! These programs are always about the husband abusing the wife. Focus on the Family knows who write most of the donation checks to their ministry, and they're not about to mess that up when women stop giving to the ministry in order to punish them for exposing their sin.

The stats show more women being abused because men are shamed if they’re abused and they don’t reach out. Men also need the support of the professionals, and sooner than later!

Where is the line between normative conflict involving two sinful people, and abuse? Let's be cautious not to toss around the term "abuse" simply because our expectations aren't being met.

People who have lived through it for decades, know what it is. It may have taken decades to realize it because the abuser blames everything they do on the victim. As if they deserve being yelled at and called names..verbal abuse is worse than physical abuse. I guess you never experienced it.

People are NOT doing that. And it’s this kind of minimizing and doubting of victims that has created this endemic issue. Did you not hear her here? What the research shows is that Victims most likely do the opposite, which is minimize the level of abuse they are incurring. Claiming that a word is too violent for the violence itself is inane and it’s called the “holy hush” amongst those working in the Domestic Violence world.
