Hidden Bruises in Holy Places: A Victim’s Voice
Author: Michele Armstrong
Publisher: Carpenter's Son Publishing
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 197
Book Description
The car chase that nearly killed them both was the end of the marriage, but just the beginning of the story… Catch a glimpse of narcissistic religious abuse through the eyes of a survivor of a thirty-year abusive marriage to a minister. Travel the road of darkness on the quest for light. Experience the victory that only comes through healing. Michele Armstrong describes in detail her journey from victim to victor, bringing to light the objective that freedom from the evil grip of abuse is available to everyone through the healing power of Jesus. Anyone can be a victim; and unfortunately, many times abusers are well-respected leaders in society and even in the church. Hiding behind the mask of charisma and charm in the public eye, abusers are monsters behind closed doors. The author exposes the abuser’s secrets and dispels the victim’s shame, while advocating for healing and victory. Through informed awareness, the church can foster a safe and healing environment, and dispel the religious stigma associated with victimization and the aftermath. Exposure dismantles the stronghold, and with awareness comes responsibility of change and a redemptive solution for all individuals, marriages, families, and churches across every corner of the world.

WINNER OF THE HILLMAN PRIZE FOR BOOK JOURNALISM, THE HELEN BERNSTEIN BOOK AWARD, AND THE LUKAS WORK-IN-PROGRESS AWARD * A NEW YORK TIMES TOP 10 BOOKS OF THE YEAR * NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD FINALIST * LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK PRIZE FINALIST * ABA SILVER GAVEL AWARD FINALIST * KIRKUS PRIZE FINALIST NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF 2019 BY: Esquire, Amazon, Kirkus, Library Journal, Publishers Weekly, BookPage, BookRiot, Economist, New York Times Staff Critics “A seminal and breathtaking account of why home is the most dangerous place to be a woman . . . A tour de force.” -Eve Ensler "Terrifying, courageous reportage from our internal war zone." -Andrew Solomon "Extraordinary." -New York Times ,“Editors' Choice” “Gut-wrenching, required reading.” -Esquire "Compulsively readable . . . It will save lives." -Washington Post “Essential, devastating reading.” -Cheryl Strayed, New York Times Book Review An award-winning journalist's intimate investigation of the true scope of domestic violence, revealing how the roots of America's most pressing social crises are buried in abuse that happens behind closed doors. We call it domestic violence. We call it private violence. Sometimes we call it intimate terrorism. But whatever we call it, we generally do not believe it has anything at all to do with us, despite the World Health Organization deeming it a “global epidemic.” In America, domestic violence accounts for 15 percent of all violent crime, and yet it remains locked in silence, even as its tendrils reach unseen into so many of our most pressing national issues, from our economy to our education system, from mass shootings to mass incarceration to #MeToo. We still have not taken the true measure of this problem. In No Visible Bruises, journalist Rachel Louise Snyder gives context for what we don't know we're seeing. She frames this urgent and immersive account of the scale of domestic violence in our country around key stories that explode the common myths-that if things were bad enough, victims would just leave; that a violent person cannot become nonviolent; that shelter is an adequate response; and most insidiously that violence inside the home is a private matter, sealed from the public sphere and disconnected from other forms of violence. Through the stories of victims, perpetrators, law enforcement, and reform movements from across the country, Snyder explores the real roots of private violence, its far-reaching consequences for society, and what it will take to truly address it.
