I Don't Want To Go Home. I'm Afraid He'll Do It Again. Is It My Fault? Globally, one in three women has been beaten, coerced into sex, or otherwise abused. In the United States alone, a woman is assaulted or beaten every nine seconds. Even worse, these statistics don't begin to reveal the darkness and grief experienced by the women themselves. Domestic violence causes physical, psychological, emotional, and spiritual pain. Clearly, its victims need help, hope, and healing. Combining theological depth with up-to-date research, Is It My Fault? traces the path from devastation to redemption. Drawing from personal experience and professional expertise as domestic violence counselors, the authors explain how God's grace can heal the deepest wounds. Written for those who have been abused, Is It My Fault? also equips family, friends, and pastors to care in ways that are compassionate, practical, and informed.
