What happens when the place someone turns to for hope does not know how to respond to their pain?
Domestic and sexual violence do not stop at the doors of a church. Survivors sit in pews, serve in ministries, and seek guidance from trusted spiritual leaders. Yet silence, misplaced loyalty, and harmful interpretations of Scripture can leave them feeling unseen and unsafe.
In Breaking the Holy Hush: Bridging Hope & Healing, Rev. Dr. J.R. Thicklin calls faith communities to respond with knowledge, compassion, and courage. Drawing on decades of ministry and domestic violence advocacy, he offers a practical guide to recognizing abuse, supporting survivors, confronting those who cause harm, and building congregations prepared to act.
Through biblical reflection, case studies, ministry practices, and discussion questions, readers explore coercive control, spiritual abuse, sexual violence, and the misuse of religious teachings. The book addresses difficult questions about marriage, forgiveness, repentance, and reconciliation while keeping survivor safety and dignity at the center.
Readers will discover how to:
- Recognize patterns of abuse that may be hidden behind respected reputations.
- Respond to disclosures with care and connect survivors with qualified support.
- Understand why forgiveness does not remove the need for accountability.
- Develop safeguarding policies and partnerships before a crisis occurs.
- Address allegations involving clergy, ministry leaders, and influential members.
- Strengthen prevention through conversations about consent, boundaries, and healthy relationships.
Written primarily for pastors, chaplains, ministry teams, and congregational leaders, this resource also speaks to advocates, survivors, and anyone committed to safer faith communities. Respectful connections with Jewish and Islamic sacred texts broaden the conversation while acknowledging differences among traditions.
Breaking the Holy Hush invites readers to turn concern into action and create communities where people can seek spiritual support without sacrificing their safety. It is a call to listen with compassion, lead with integrity, and help build pathways toward hope and healing.
