DR. DAVID EDGINGTON | The Abusive Wife


Listen Later

Dr. David Edgington is the author of the outstanding book "The Abusive Wife."

But he proposes that the term "abusive" isn't accurate. A biblical term is "reviling", which he says, “Entails using speech as a non-contact weapon against another person.”

Within the Christian church, pastors have overlooked this form of abuse of men in their rush to apologize for the past, continuing a trend that began long ago, succumbing to the idea that women are eternal victims and that every knee must bow to their feelings.

But David wrote his book 8 years ago. So today it's hard not to call Dr. Edgington just a little bit prophetic, and quite a bit more than heroic.

In our conversation David and I discussed:

  • His excellent book "The Abusive Wife"
  • How to Recognize a Reviled Husband
  • Wokeness and Christianity
  • Women and Their Anger
  • The Danger of the Secular Courts
  • How Abuse Can Sanctify Us
  • Why Women's Feelings Are NOT Sovereign.
