Putting Burdens on Broken Shoulders

Exploring the impact of conservative Christian teachings on marriage and divorce, the book critiques the harmful advice often given to divorced individuals and those in troubled relationships. It highlights the dangers faced by women escaping domestic violence, the neglect of children's well-being, and the emotional toll on those condemned to loneliness. The narrative questions the interpretation of biblical teachings that underpin this advice, challenging the notion that such guidance is inherently rooted in scripture.
