On the previous series on spiritual grooming and spiritual abuse, I discussion on a current situation that is having a profound impact on me that has all kinds of intersectionality within the rural and isolated communities in which I have interaction and reside. The topics focused on the difficult and complex issues of spiritual grooming and spiritual abuse, which I believe often leads to sexual abuse but not always. Spiritual grooming has become an epidemic in evangelical communities and is often subtle affecting children and adults. It is subtle because it uses our spirituality against us, and causes us to distrust ourselves and our buddies in order to trust others who claim that what they are saying comes from God.
On this week's episode, we are going to continue to develop a theology of the family. On this episode we are going to dig deeper into one of the relationship values, covenant. Covenant, from the authors' points of view is love and being loved.
