Have you been criticized in public by your partner? Do they try to control your life? Have you been subjected to hurtful language or had your efforts ignored? Does your partner shut down on you emotionally and verbally for days and weeks at a time? Do you feel isolated, powerless, or worthless in your relationship? There’s never a good reason for you to feel this way. You deserve respect, love, and care.

If you can relate to any of these situations, you may want to consider taking Shawn McBride’s emotional abuse assessment to determine if you have or are currently experiencing emotional abuse. Learning to pinpoint the red flags in your relationship can help you make empowered decisions about it.

Emotional abuse is a form of abuse/psychological harassment that encompasses verbal and non-verbal acts that inflict emotional distress, humiliation, or manipulation on another person. Although it may be difficult to recognize and prove, emotional abuse can be just as detrimental as physical abuse. It’s crucial to acknowledge that the victim is not to blame for emotional abuse. The abuser is entirely accountable for their actions and the harm they cause.

The Recovery From Infidelity Workbook is a highly effective and practical workbook designed specifically for couples seeking to save their relationship. This workbook is for couples who desire to properly work through the causes, ramifications, and healing from unfaithfulness, extra-marital affairs, adultery, and being cheated on. Finding out that your partner or spouse has been unfaithful to you is devastating. This resource will help couples work together and recover from the shock of unfaithfulness and find hope in the devastation.

· Infidelity occurs when a person is unfaithful to their partner or spouse in a relationship where exclusivity is expected. This issue is not just related or limited to physical relationships. Infidelity can happen on different levels, including emotional and relational levels, and across different mediums, including physical, virtual reality, and online.

· Physical infidelity most often involves pursuing intimacy, affection, and sexual relationships outside of a monogamous relationship or marriage. Finding out that your partner or spouse has cheated on you physically can make you feel dirty, unwanted, and unloved.

· Emotional infidelity is based on creating emotional connections to other people outside of a monogamous relationship or marriage. This type of unfaithfulness can take the form of emotionally bonding, sharing secrets, discussing deeply personal subjects, and spending inordinate amounts of time with another person.

· Relational infidelity is the act of creating relationships that are more important than a partner or spouse’s relationship. It involves emphasizing taking care of that other relationship and placing their needs above the needs of your partner or spouse.

Infidelity of any kind does not have to end your relationship. On the contrary, by remaining committed to each other and working together, you and your partner can recover your relationship and rebuild your intimacy.

Whether your audience is young or old, object lessons are powerful teaching tools.

Jesus Christ, the Master Teacher, often used practical examples while teaching. He may not have held up an object in front of a Sunday school, but when he started speaking about vineyards, coins, sheep, lamps, or other well-known objects, his audience got the point.

For example, when he met the woman at the well, he used water as an object lesson: “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst” (John 4:13 - 14).

When we teach object lessons” we use ordinary, everyday things or objects to make our points about extraordinary, other-worldly things. When learners are engaged by their senses, they participate more fully in a lesson. It imprints itself on their souls.

If you doubt the power of object lessons, remember the most powerful object lesson Jesus left on earth: “And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you” (Luke 22:19 - 20).

The Last Supper was the most powerful object lesson ever taught. That’s why it has been passed down for thousands of years.

This book teaches you to harness the power of object lessons for those who follow you, whether they be your own children, the children of others, or adults longing to know and understand the Lord.
