Called to Peace: A Survivor’s Guide to Finding Peace and Healing After Domestic Abuse

What do you do when you don't believe in divorce, but find yourself in a toxic, or even dangerous, marriage? This is an agonizing struggle for many women; it certainly was for Joy Forrest, founder of Called to Peace Ministries. Joy prayed, sought counseling, and read every book she could find on the subject. Still, the intimidation she endured from her husband continued to escalate until fleeing the danger became her only option. As a devout Believer, Joy immersed herself in prayer and Bible study and, over time, began to see God's heart for the oppressed and realized the erroneous beliefs that had kept her in bondage. Called to Peace is one part memoir and one part guidebook. Joy's story and insight will help you to recognize the signs of an abusive relationship, as well as provide you with spiritual truths to combat guilt and promote healing after abuse. Whether you are in an abusive relationship yourself or desire to help someone else who is suffering from domestic abuse, this book offers hope, inspiration, and biblical guidance. This revised version has been updated and expanded to speak to current issues relating to abuse and more fully address issues like spiritual abuse and trauma. While Joy wrote the original book specifically for survivors of domestic abuse, survivors of other traumas have found it helpful in their healing journeys as well.
