Providing spiritual counsel to the victims of abuse, rape, and incest
I came across this article last week online and wanted to bring it up for discussion on SharperIron because it seems like a lot of our responses to allegations or cases of abuse / rape are done ‘on the fly’ as we become aware of them. There are a lot of interesting points and tidbits here, so I wanted to share it with you all and see how we can develop a much better and more holistic approach to abuse, especially how we approach the victims of abuse and their families.
