Flying Free

By: Natalie Hoffman
  • Summary

  • 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.

TRUTH plain, simple and real

ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS POD CAST!!
Although I am not 100% in agreement with Natalie's theological views, however the 5% difference really maybe more me than her. Could be I just haven’t caught up yet or she could be wrong. BUT her 95% on the truth money is so much better than the 100% wrong theology that kept me 43 years in bondage to my mental, emotional, spitual and sexual abuser. So grateful to be free and find wisdom and support in this pod cast.
Thank you Natalie Hoffman!!!
Praise God for this truth finally coming to light.
