Should a woman endure abused by an unbelieving spouse the same way a missionary

endures persecution?

And should she report abuse to the leaders of her church and only go to police as a last resort?

Welcome to the Roy's report, a podcast dedicated to reporting the truth and restoring the

church. I'm Julie Roy's. And stunningly, what podcast dedicated to reporting the truth and restoring the church. I'm Julie

Roy's. And stunningly, what you just heard is the advice offered by Dr. John Street, the chair

of the graduate program of biblical counseling at John MacArthur School, the Masters University

and Seminary. Dr. Street is also an elder at Grace Community Church where MacArthur pastors. As you probably know,

I've been reporting on how abuse is handled or perhaps mishandled at MacArthur's church. And I published

an expose revealing that MacArthur shamed and excommunicated a wife for refusing to take back her

child-abusing husband. But more recently, I published a report with numerous

clips from lectures by Dr. John Street, and they indicate that teaching wives to stay with

their abusive husbands is actually a policy at John MacArthur's school. You'll hear those

clips in this podcast, but you'll also hear expert advice on dealing with abuse and trauma

from Dr. Philip Monroe.

Dr. Monroe is a licensed psychologist and director of the Global Trauma Recovery Institute at Missio Seminary in Philadelphia.

He's also one of our speakers at the upcoming Restore Conference, May 20th and 21st at Judson University in West Suburban, Chicago.

And by the way, tickets are still available for what's going to be an incredible two days of learning and healing.

So if you'd like more information on that, just go to Restore22.com.

Again, that's Restore22.com.

Well, I'm so excited to speak with Phil.

But before I do, I'd like to thank the sponsors of this podcast, Judson University, and Mark Horda Barrington.
