According to the American Medical Association, one quarter of American women will be abused by an intimate partner at some point in their lives. Al Miles addresses the issues related to inadequate pastoral response to this pervasive problem. Miles explores the dynamics of abusive relationships and the role that clergy members can take to heal this painful situation. This new edition builds upon the insights, policies, and programs of the original volume and includes new information on the pathology of domestic violence and the effect the economic downturn is having on victim-survivors and batterers.
