e-book, 978-1-62509-322-6) is one of a kind in that it is
specific to teaching Christians how to minister to survivors of abuse. Such are
principles that, according to the author, permeated Jesus’s ministry. The book
goes into stages of healing and practical methods to support restoration in
Christ.
“Abuse and its effects are a widespread and heart-rending problem in the church today,” states the author. “We want to help, but often feel helpless and overwhelmed. In this practical and powerful book, you will learn about abuse, its effects, the stages of healing and what you specifically can do to help victims move from surviving abuse to thriving in Christ.”
Roberta Fish, LCSW, is a therapist who has been supporting clients in their work of healing from abuse for the last thirty years. She is co-founder of Hope for Hurting Hearts Ministries (hopeforhurtinghearts.com), a healing ministry for abuse survivors. As a retired professor of Religion and Psychology, she enjoys teaching people about topics that will encourage their learning, growth and ministry.
