Praise for The Emotionally Abusive Husband "Well-balanced, biblically sound, and user-friendly. A practical tool that avoids extremes to determine the possible status of abuse. Every biblically oriented counselor needs to have this book available. Anne provides direction to further additional dependable biblical resources to assist with addressing the issue of abuse." Dr. Howard Eyrich, Director of Biblical Counseling D.Min Program, Birmingham Theological Seminary, USA "Anne addresses one of the most overlooked sin issues in her book and uses her vast experience in discipleship and biblical counseling to minister to women broken by emotionally abusive marriages. The book is designed to provide biblical insights for women who are struggling in emotionally abusive relationships and for the churches that want to help them....I look forward to using this book with my counselees." Shannon Kay McCoy, MABC, ACBC. Biblical Counseling Director, Valley Center Community Church, CA, USA; Council Member of the Biblical Counseling Coalition; and author of Help! I’m A Slave to Food "Emotional abuse can often seem to be a vague concept, but in her book Anne gives a clear definition and description. She also provides specific ways for the victim to understand what’s happening and how to respond biblically....A very helpful book for biblical counselors." Don Roy, D.Min Training Center Director, Institute for Biblical Counseling and Discipleship, Slidell, Louisiana, USA "Here is a resource that seeks to restore dignity to abused women through total immersion in relevant scriptural truths...Anne’s approach is thoroughly biblical, sensitive, and practical." Jane Kratz, Pastoral Care Counsellor, Kommetjie Christian Church, Kommetjie, South Africa; Vice-Chairman of Biblical Counselling Africa. "People present us with many challenging situations. All of which require a theological understanding and applying biblical wisdom...I am thankful for Anne providing us with a much-needed resource for helping us navigate this especially challenging situation in a God-glorifying way." Andrew D. Rogers, PhD. Executive Director, Overseas Instruction in Counseling "Helping women in abusive situations is one of the responsibilities of the local church. As Christians, we need to be equipped to know how to help. It was helpful to read a female perspective on an issue where husbands, church leaders, and brothers in Christ, need to do so much more. This book is an excellent resource to think through the subject biblically so that we can be better informed and more fully equipped to offer God-honoring support." Alasdair McPherson, Bible teacher
