This video is on Jesus' Greatest Sermon on Divorce. Luke 13:10-16
0:00 - Intro
2:40 - Jesus' Luke 13 Sermon
Welcome to my channel. I've been a Christian divorce recovery leader at churches since 1998. I believe in the sanctity of marriage: that God meant marriage to be lifelong, faithful, and loving. But what do people of faith do, when their marriage is the exact opposite?
That’s the question I answer on this YouTube channel. If you are a woman or man who needs a life-saving divorce, you’re in the right place. You may never have heard that term. But I’m sure, you understand it already. We’re not talking about an "I'm bored" divorce, or "I miss the party life" divorce, or "I feel unfulfilled" divorce, or an "I found someone hotter" divorce.
We’re talking about divorces for very serious reasons, divorces to find relief from a marriage with a pattern of adultery, sexual immorality, physical or emotional abuse, .

![Dynamics of Abuse with Bob Hamp MFT [Multi-Language]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Va0B3i7xXn0/mqdefault.jpg "Dynamics of Abuse with Bob Hamp MFT [Multi-Language]
Bob Hamp, MFT, is an expert on marital abuse in Christian relationships. He’s been a Christian therapist for more than 30 years. We talk today about both male and female victims and why they stay with someone who hurts them. There are 3 videos in this series. See links below:
Video #1: DYNAMICS OF ABUSE: The Mis-Assignment of Responsibility
Heres the problem: Victims of abuse don’t see themselves as victims. They see themselves as special helpers. Often abuse victims think they can “love their spouse out of his/her trap” or fill the hole in their heart. So that results in a terrible dynamic:
1. The abusers assigns responsibility to the victim to meet their demands or drives
2. An abuser makes the victim responsible for the abuser’s choices
3. The abuser tells the victim, “You are responsible for keeping the secret.”
4. Onlookers ask the victim what they did to cause it.
The victim has resources. The abuser has deficits. The abuser wants to give the deficits to the victim and take his/her resources.
When the victim finally puts an end to this, they are accused of being vindictive and “giving up too soon,” when in reality, they are finally handing the abuser/addict back his/her own responsibility.
