1 in stock
When Victims Marry: Building a Stronger Marriage by Breaking Destructive Cycles by Don and Jan Frank is a Christian marriage and relationship guide addressing the difficult ways in which unresolved childhood experiences can affect adult relationships. Drawing particular attention to dysfunctional family backgrounds, emotional wounds and childhood abuse, the authors examine how painful experiences from the past may influence communication, trust, intimacy and behaviour within marriage.
Rather than treating marital problems purely as conflicts between husband and wife, Don and Jan Frank encourage readers to consider the deeper patterns and emotional foundations underlying recurring difficulties. When Victims Marry explores how destructive cycles can develop when one or both partners bring unresolved trauma, fear, anger or unhealthy learned behaviours into their marriage. It offers a faith-based approach to recognising these patterns and beginning the process of healing and rebuilding.
The authors combine personal insight with Christian teaching, using the metaphor of building and repairing a house to illustrate the importance of establishing sound foundations for a healthy marriage. Themes include forgiveness, responsibility, emotional healing, communication, intimacy, commitment and the role of Christian faith in strengthening relationships.
Originally published in 1990, When Victims Marry remains relevant for readers interested in Christian counselling, marriage enrichment, family relationships and the long-term effects of difficult childhood experiences. This copy is the fourth printing, March 1993, of the Here’s Life Publishers edition shown. Bibliographic records confirm the original edition at 207 pages and classify it under Christian marriage and Christian living.
