Putting Burdens on Broken Shoulders

Exploring the impact of conservative Christian views on marriage and divorce, the book critiques the harmful advice often given to divorced individuals and those in troubled relationships. It highlights the dangers faced by women in abusive situations, the detrimental effects on children, and the loneliness inflicted on many. The narrative questions the interpretation of biblical teachings that underpin these damaging beliefs, challenging the notion that such guidance is divinely ordained. Ultimately, it advocates for a reevaluation of these perspectives to better support vulnerable individuals.
