The Emotionally Destructive Relationship

January 13, 2018

Every day in America, a woman is abused every 15 seconds. And even though 25% of church-going women experience some abuse in the home, the church isn’t always equipped to handle this problem. Today on Family Talk, hear how anyone stuck in a destructive relationship can find freedom and help. It’s a heart-wrenching and compelling message, and you don’t want to miss a minute of it today on Family Talk.

What Is a Woman, According to God?
What is a woman? You might think that this is a simple question. In recent years, however, it has become as hard to answer for many people as an algebra problem, the kind some of us once sweated out in high school. Few topics have created more confusion and a firestorm of vitriol than the discussion of gender ideology. At the Dr. James Dobson Family Institute (JDFI), we understand parents are desperate for answers, and we want to help. A regular JDFI contributor, Dr. Owen Strachan, who is provost and research professor of theology at Grace Bible Theological Seminary, addresses the question of "What Is a Woman, According to God?" in his new essay. We wanted to make it easy to read and available to share with your family and friends, so we've designed it as a downloadable PDF.
