The Grace Fueled Wife | Communication, Intimacy, Separation, Reconciliation, Christian Marriage

E179// Is your husband mean or cranky and you’re looking for clarity to discern emotional abuse? w. Annette Oltmanns (Part 1)


Listen Later

Do you ever feel like what is wrong with me? Am I not loveable? Why do we have so many communication problems? Are you wondering why your relationship is so toxic? Have you felt like you’re walking on eggshells and can’t determine if your husband is abusive or just has a cranky demeanor?

All these questions are answered in this interview with Annette Oltmans of the Mend Project as she shares her work with us on covert emotional abuse. This is one of my most important episodes to date because as Annette says - “Clarity is the first step to healing.”

She answers questions such as:

  • What is emotional abuse? 
  • What is double abuse and what can pastors and therapists do to prevent it?
  • How can we discern if we are in a double abuse situation? 
  • What is the responsibility of the complementarian church as it relates to abuse and telling women to submit to their husbands? 
  • What are common abusive behaviors and red flags we should look out for? 
  • What is the difference between someone with a mean/cranky disposition (or someone raised with bad habits) vs. a chronic abuser? 
  • If this episode resonated with you or you think may apply to someone you know, please share it! If you want to learn more about the Mend Project, please visit https://themendproject.com/
