Ginny Rucker: When Silence Looked Like Faith, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

When Silence Looked Like Faith explores the quiet and often misunderstood intersection of faith, domestic abuse, and the church's response to suffering that does not always leave visible wounds.

Through personal story and careful reflection, Ginny Rucker reveals how coercive control, spiritual manipulation, and psychological abuse can exist within marriages that appear stable and faithful from the outside. With honesty and compassion, she shares her journey from confusion and endurance to clarity and healing.

This book is written both for survivors and for church leaders who want to respond more wisely and safely when abuse is disclosed. Rather than condemning faith communities, Rucker invites them to grow in understanding-recognizing patterns of harm that are often overlooked and learning how to support those living through them.

When Silence Looked Like Faith is both a personal story and a practical call for awareness. It offers language for survivors who have struggled to name their experiences and guidance for leaders who want to care well for those in crisis. This book reminds readers that faith was never meant to require silence in the face of harm-and that truth, once spoken, can lead to both healing and hope.
