    Flying Free

    Flying Free is a support resource for women of faith who need hope and healing from hidden emotional abuse, spiritual abuse, and narcissistic abuse. Because of misogynistic theology taught in controlling and spiritually abusive churches, many Christian women find themselves in destructive marriages where there is an uneven power dynamic. Male partners use their status as a husband to gain power and control over a woman’s mind, emotions, body, social life, finances, and more. When she tries to get help from her equally abusive church environment, she is betrayed and re-abused. Flying Free offers a Christ-centered, gospel-oriented perspective on domestic abuse that protects and honors the voices and autonomy of women. Tune in each week to hear conversations with emotional abuse advocates and fellow survivors who will walk with you on your journey up and out. We hear you. You are not alone.

    But I Don't Want to Hurt Anyone! [91] Nov 03, 2020
    Show notes

    What if your desire to avoid hurting anyone is actually the reason you ARE hurting them? What if you're actually hurting YOURSELF by living out this desire too?

    Boundaries don't hurt others, despite the loud voices that tell you otherwise. Healthy boundaries aren't meant to control other people, ensure they think well of you, or make you into a prickly cactus no one can approach. They're a way of living your truest self and your highest calling, while honoring the personhood of everyone around you.

    Listen to learn more about:

    • The lie that keeps many women in bondage to poor boundaries.
    • Possible responses to setting boundaries, and how to reframe your thinking about them.
    • The truth that can set you free to live with healthy boundaries and without the guilt!
    • How healthy boundaries reflect the heart of Jesus and the way he lived on Earth.

    Why Do I Feel Like I'm Going Crazy in My Marriage? [89] Oct 20, 2020
    Show notes

    How do you respond when your partner sends you two totally different messages? One message says he loves you and will do anything to make things right. The other message says you're making a big deal out of nothing, and you're actually the problem. Which message is true? In this episode, Daphne, Natalie, and Rachel talk about:

    • What your partner is really communicating and how you can know for sure.
    • How religious teachings like "your heart is desperately wicked, and who can know it?" and "assume the best" perpetuate domestic abuse.
    • Where conviction really comes from.
    • A simple way to reframe your experience so you can get unhooked from the lies.
    • How authentic love doesn't bind people but rather sets them free.

    What is Emotional Manipulation? [87] Oct 06, 2020
    Show notes

    You've been telling him for years how hurtful his behavior is. Literally begging him to stop. It's like beating your head against a wall. You've reached your breaking point. Then he tosses out a question your heart longed to hear from the beginning:

    "What can I do to fix this?"

    Right at the end. Right before your feet hit the pavement. Right before you've given up.

    What now?

    Learn about 3 critical aspects of this scenario:

    • What this question actually means.
    • Why he never asked it before.
    • Ways to respond that won't lead you right back onto the hamster wheel of death.

    Am I the Problem in My Marriage? [85] Sep 22, 2020
    Show notes

    You're the problem. An angry woman, a discontent wife, a troublemaker, the ungodly one. You've heard this over and over, in your mind, at church, and from your husband. Why can't you get it together? Where do all the rage, frustration, and ugliness come from? What if the question is the answer? Abusers don't ask if they are abusive. Natalie, Daphne, and Rachel discuss the common reactions women have in destructive marriages that bring shame and confusion along with:

    • The need to see that our abusers try to force a reaction by exploiting their intimate knowledge of us.
    • How/why it is so common for counselors, pastors, family, and friends to slap the label of "abuser" on a victim (and why you don't have to care).
    • The key to freedom from this horrible merry-go-round: CHOICE!

    Trusting God While Making Your Own Adult Choices in Your Controlling Marriage [83] Sep 08, 2020
    Show notes

    Trust is risk. Trust forces us to decide what we believe, make choices based on those beliefs, and respect what others choose to believe and do. We aren't called to control others, please everybody, or even defend our decisions. But we are called to live bravely using the knowledge, experience, and power we have.

    • Trusting God doesn't mean we all make the same choices.
    • We are only responsible for our choices.
    • Allowing others to be who they are/make their own choices is trusting God and allows us to live in freedom.

    I'm Always Walking on Eggshells in My Christian Marriage! [82] Sep 01, 2020
    Show notes

    Have you ever been told to let the past be the past (even though the past is your present and your present is a prison disguised as a marriage)?

    Robin walked on eggshells and hid herself away to survive. After years in an abusive marriage, she believed God didn’t love her and that he hated divorce more than anything. She was taught that her body wasn’t her own, and her job was to make her husband happy at all costs. But no matter how small she became, it was never enough. No matter how hard she tried, he was never happy. When she dared to bring up her concerns or ask her husband to stop harming her and the kids, he blamed her, and the cycle began again. Robins talks about:

    • How Flying Free has helped (and can help you too)
    • Red flags from her marriage (great for those hoping to avoid toxic relationships in the future)
    • How the church made things worse (and why she eventually went against all she’d been taught)

    Since gaining freedom from her husband, Robin no longer lives in fear in her own home. She is sure of God’s love and knows that what he really hates is abuse. There is also, finally, distance between the past and her present.
