Focus on the Family's president says, God "hates divorce in every case." They talk about abuse on-air and online, and say "get to safety" and "leave," but don't be fooled. They don't condone divorce for abuse no matter how bad. It seems they really don't care if you die as long as you pay $6,000 for their Hope Restored marriage intensive first.

There's a reward for the first person who can find any mention on the U.S. Focus on the Family website that divorce is "okay," or "acceptable" or "biblical" or "condoned," for physical or emotional abuse. (Note: the U.S. website is this one: Focusonthefamily.com, not the Canadian one ending with .ca) See lifesavingdivorce.com/fotf200
