Make no attempt to restart your heart for a narc.

02/27/2026

Are Christians telling you to stay with an abusive husband no matter what?

In this video, I show you exactly what to say when church leaders, pastors, friends, or family pressure you to remain married to a narcissistic or abusive spouse.

If you’re a Christian woman experiencing narcissistic abuse, you’ve likely heard statements like:

• “It’s not really abuse.”
• “You need to submit.”
• “God will change him.”
• “You have no biblical reason to divorce.”
• “Stay married for the children.”

These statements are not only wrong — they can keep you trauma bonded to a man who is slowly destroying you and your children.

In this video, I explain:

✔ How narcissists use Christian “flying monkeys”
✔ Why love does NOT change a narcissist
✔ What the Bible actually says about abuse and separation
✔ How to give one strong, truthful response — and move on
✔ Why protecting yourself is not unbiblical

If you are struggling with Christian guilt, spiritual manipulation, or pressure to stay in an abusive marriage, this teaching will strengthen and empower you.

You are not crazy.
You are not overreacting.
And you are not required to stay and be destroyed.

When you’re married to a narcissist, the emotional abuse can become so relentless that you begin to lose hope. Many wives of narcissistic husbands experience suicidal thoughts, depression, panic attacks, and deep hopelessness, not because they are weak, but because they are living in ongoing trauma.

In this video, I explain:

Why narcissistic abuse creates suicidal ideation

How covert narcissists slowly destroy your self-esteem

The physical and emotional toll of long-term narcissistic marriage

Why staying in an abusive relationship feels like “slow su***de”

How to fight back and begin reclaiming your life

If you are married to a narcissist — or recently divorced one — and you are struggling with thoughts of self-harm, you are not crazy, and you are not alone. Narcissistic abuse causes deep trauma bonds, emotional exhaustion, and spiritual confusion. But there is a path forward.

God does not want you to stay trapped in narcissistic abuse. There is hope. There is freedom. And there is a way to rebuild your strength, your voice, and your life.

💬 Important: If You Are in Immediate Crisis

If you are actively considering harming yourself, please seek immediate professional help. Contact your local emergency services or a su***de prevention hotline in your country. You deserve support and protection.

If you’ve ever wondered, “Does God hate narcissists?” — especially in the context of a toxic or emotionally abusive Christian marriage — this video is for you.

In today’s podcast episode, we explore what the Bible actually says about narcissism. Many Christian women trapped in marriages with a covert narcissistic husband struggle with confusion, guilt, and shame — especially when Scripture is used against them.

But what does God truly say about narcissistic abuse?
Does God defend the abuser?
Does He expect you to endure emotional or spiritual harm in silence?

When you’re trapped in a narcissistic marriage…or fighting through a brutal divorce…

Do you ever wonder:

Does God see me?
Does God care?
Is He going to rescue me?

If you’re experiencing narcissistic abuse — especially from a covert narcissist — it can feel isolating, traumatic, and spiritually confusing.

But Scripture gives us a powerful reminder.

In Genesis 16, Hagar was abused, desperate, and alone. And in her lowest moment, God met her there. She said:

“You are the God who sees me.”

If you’re suffering emotional abuse, gaslighting, manipulation, or trauma bonding, hear this clearly:

God sees you.
God hears you.
God loves you.
God will rescue you.

You are not invisible.
You are not forgotten.

That’s why I wrote I Will Be Free: 52 God-Moment Devotionals on Your Road to Leaving the Narc — a biblical devotional designed to help you:

• Break free from narcissistic abuse
• Hear God clearly during trauma
• Gain spiritual strength to leave
• Move toward emotional freedom
• Rebuild your faith after abuse

You can get I Will Be Free at davidEclarkephd.com (Clarke with an E).

And if you’re dealing with a covert narcissist, join my LIVE 2-night webinar on March 9 & 10 where I teach you how to:

• Identify covert narcissistic abuse
• Fight back against subtle manipulation
• Protect your children
• Get strong enough to divorce and escape

You are not alone.
The God who saw Hagar sees you too.
