Betrayal Trauma: Understanding the Impact of Marital Sexual Infidelity
Ellen Mary Dykas, Harvest USA
Marriages among believers are suffering the devastation of sexual betrayal in staggering numbers. Bombs explode when pornography addictions, adultery through affairs and/or prostitution, and technology mediated sexual sins come to light. Women and men are both susceptible to sexual unfaithfulness in marriage; it is vital to learn how to care for both wives and husbands who are on the receiving end of broken marriage vows. This workshop will give an overview of the impact of betrayal trauma and the vital first steps of care that ministry leaders and churches can offer to both spouses.
