What is Domestic Kindness

WHO WE ARE

Mission

The mission of Domestic Kindness is to give every church the tools to stop domestic abuse.

Vision

The vision of Domestic Kindness is to see every church prepared to help those in their surrounding communities who are suffering in abusive relationships.

Objectives and Purpose

The specific objectives and purposes of Domestic Kindness are:

To create understanding about domestic brokenness by providing materials to participating churches.
To facilitate learning through small groups or from the pulpit about domestic brokenness and a biblical response.
To train Resource Teams in churches to hear the oppressed and connect them to intervention.

Bible Studies

Domestic Kindness is creating a variety of small group Bible studies that focus on godly character while shining God's light onto the darkness of coercive control.

There are two goals we hope to accomplish through these studies:

1. Exhort kindness in the home.

2. Equip participants with information that will enable them to help those suffering domestic brokenness.

All types of small groups will be encouraged to go through an 8-week study. These studies will be appropriate for all groups, including couples, men, women, singles, youth, Sunday groups, and life groups.

Resource Team

The Domestic Kindness Resource Team is the group (made up of church members) at each church that facilitates the Domestic Kindness ministries of relationship education and referrals.

The Resource Team encourages godly relationships by providing Bible studies for small groups and study groups. They offer references and leaders' training material for church leaders about domestic abuse and a biblical response to it.

The Resource Team is also equipped to refer coercive control victims to resources (support groups, counselors, shelters, books, etc.) that will be helpful for both victims and repentant abusers.
