Helping You
We are about helping you.
Statistics report that one out of four women will experience some form of
domestic violence in their lifetime. Out of a Christian concern for
those involved, including victims, survivors, and those who have abusive
actions, Tri-State Hope for Violence in Families
has been formed. It is
our goal to help educate
others on how to effectively offer hope, and help, for those
experiencing violence and abuse in
families.
We would like to challenge churches to do a group book study on
Violence
in Families: What Every Christian Needs to Know by Reverend Al Miles.
Reverend Miles is the head Chaplain for the Queen’s Medical Center in
Honolulu, Hawaii and is nationally known for his work in Domestic
Violence. His book includes a chapter on Teen Dating and Relationship
Violence: In and Out of the Church.
We are asking local book stores to stock and display books such as
Violence in Families: What Every Christian Needs to Know
and Ending Teen
Dating Violence and Domestic Violence: What Every Pastor Needs to Know
by Reverend Al Miles. Also No Place for Abuse by Katherine Kroger-Clark.
These books give correct Biblical meaning of scriptures that are often
taken out of context, by people who have abusive actions to justify their
inappropriate behaviors. It is our prayer that God will use these
resources to help bring glory to his kingdom.
