Abuse:
The REAL TRUTH is there are many minister's wives who are beaten, abused, by their "pastor husbands," everyday!!
So many are enduring a silent "hell" because to expose him would mean ruining his career, his ministry and destroy the faith of a congregation in some cases!!
How does one explain that the man who preaches to them every Sunday about love, peace, joy, patience, endurance, family, children, and all the other morals of society that we seek to emulate, comes down out of that pulpit and goes home and abuses his wife?
