Abuse is a devastating sin that leaves deep scars and unspeakable pain. Victims of abuse have had much taken from them; Jesus Christ and His Church have much to offer in response.
Abuse at its heart involves an individual taking advantage of the helpless and the powerless. God has never wavered on this issue throughout Scripture, condemning the sin of those who take advantage of the “lesser” in society and calling on His Church to protect and serve those in need (Isaiah 1:23; James 1:27). The Body of Christ has a responsibility to offer protection, guidance, and healing for the victims of suffering in this world.
These resources, sermons, and articles can help point the way to understanding, comfort, and healing as you seek to deal with the effects of abuse in your own life…or in the life of someone you know.
There isn’t a single person reading these words who hasn’t been hurt by someone else. All of us can remember someone who planned something, said something, or did something ugly or unfair to us.
