Church as a Refuge: A Survivor’s Letter About Domestic Violence

This post is inspired by an episode of The Reclaiming HER Resilience Podcast, which I created to recognize Domestic Violence Awareness Month. It’s important to acknowledge that, according to the Domestic Violence Hotline, more than 12 million people are affected by intimate partner violence each year. That statistic highlights the urgent need for ongoing awareness and understanding around this issue. We must keep this conversation going and support those affected, fostering a compassionate dialogue that can lead to meaningful change inside and outside of the church.
