For many victims of domestic abuse, beliefs about submission and headship within marriage are one of the things that locks them into the abuse. So, at some point, they want to examine and perhaps re-evaluate these beliefs in order to get free.

UPDATE Sept 2021: I, Barbara Roberts, have come to believe that Jeff Crippen does not practise what he preaches. He vilely persecuted an abuse victim and spiritually abused many other people in the Tillamook congregation. Go here to read the evidence. Jeff has not gone to the people that he spiritually and emotionally abused. He has not apologised to them, let alone asked for their forgiveness.
