Breaking Free: How a Mother of 7 Escaped a Sexually Abusive Marriage | Stacy Atherton | Ep. 167

WARNING: This episode is not for young ears OR those who may be triggered by stories of sexual abuse.  This is the story of one woman who escaped a sexually abusive marriage to a porn-addicted husband.  This episode outlines her story as well as highlights the devastating effects porn consumption has on an individual and, eventually, their family.  Stacy is a survivor, fighter and advocate for women and children who have endured abusive relationships. She speaks to many aspects of this conversation that most of us don't realize: appropriate physical touch, where abusers most often come from, how porn changes a person's brain and, if unchecked and unhindered, will enable them to objectify anyone and anything as an object of sexual pleasure.  She encourages the church to RISE UP and offers many good suggestions for ways to educate and protect your family and children.  Fight The New Drug Covenant Eyes Follow me on instagram HERE and HERE.
