Abuse is so much more than broken bones and bruises. Today, I share 13 patterns/systems of abuse, as outlined in the book Safe Churches by Sarah McDugal, Jennifer Jill Schwirzer and Nicole Parker. For more in depth instruction, Sarah had a playlist on YouTube: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9WSC9P1z2VeGeak1Id8gsioSdaKnYGBI.
