"God sets the lonely in families..." At Restored, we come back to this verse time and time again. It drives our vision to see a churches across the UK welcoming survivors of domestic abuse, giving them community, support and care. #verseoftheday #RestoredBeacons

It's for this reason (amongst others) that I wish we'd had more academics in the room today. It can't be on practitioners and people on the front line to do all of the work. #AbusingGod22

It’s been a full morning at #abusinggod22 @ManchesterUniv. Difficult topics but good to hear about research and collaboration between academics and practitioners on coercive control and abuse in religious settings @abusinggodahrc

Thank you for what you just said @bethkeith_ re. Confession and the different dynamics involved in (a) guilt and (b) shame. I am really letting that sink in. #AbusingGod22

The #CostOfLivingCrisis is having an unprecedented impact on women and children and requires urgent government action. Survivors must be offered the help they need to support their children and be free from abuse, shares @FarahNazeer with @SkyNews ⬇️ news.sky.com/story/unprecede…
