Domestic Violence: A Survivor-Centered Biblical Study with Rev. Simone Oliver

Monday, October 28, 2024,  Monday, November 4, 2024, Monday, November 11, 2024

6:00-8:30pm ET / 3:00-5:30pm PT  LIVE on Zoom

Join American Baptist Women's Ministries for a three-evening experiential learning experience, raising awareness of the impact of domestic violence from the perspective of the victim and with a Biblical foundation.

Through interaction with the facilitator and colleagues, activities, and discussion, we will move beyond facts and statistics to a true understanding of the impact of domestic violence on its victims and the communities that surround them.

The workshop will culminate with hearing the voices and stories of some who have survived.

In this course, we will:

  • Examine the violence inflicted on the women of Judges 19 and discern God’s response.
  • Describe the mental, emotional, financial, and physical toll of domestic violence on its victims and their communities.
  • Connect the call to live out God’s love and justice by understanding the impact of patriarchy and what it means to be formed in the image of God.

The three sessions also have themes for which I welcome your review:

  • Session 1: Biblical Foundation and the Personal Toll of Domestic Violence
  • Session 2: The Collective Toll of Domestic Violence
  • Session 3: Learning from Survivors
