Connection with empathetic peers through EQUIP, a support group
Sometimes advice hurts more than it helps
When ministering to those in unhealthy relationships, it can be hard to know what to say.
- Traditional marriage advice doesn’t apply to emotional abuse.
- Church teaching can sometimes excuse abuse.
- Scripture can be twisted or taken out of context.
You don't have to walk on eggshells any longer.
Together, Chris Moles and Leslie Vernick have 40+ years combined experience working with both abusers and the abused. They can help guide you to address abuse God’s way and help those who desperately need biblical counsel.
