In this episode, we shed light on the challenging and often-hidden issue of domestic violence, where silence can be the norm, even in faith-based settings.
Beverly Reddy, founder and CEO of Ishshah's Place, talks about the cultural barriers that prevent open conversations, the silence within families, and the role of education in breaking this cycle of secrecy.
We explore how faith communities can better equip themselves to support survivors, focusing on the need for education, resources, and a compassionate approach to care. Special attention is given to how initiatives like the "Safe Sanctuaries" program are transforming the way pastors and faith leaders approach domestic violence, creating safe spaces where women can seek help without being sent back into harm's way.
