I like everyone else's suggestions. I also think it would be helpful to look for a trusted support group that she can feel totally comfortable with; preferably a faith-based confidential group.

Please let me know if we are doing the right thing by leaving our present church. We have been attending this church for 8 months and now we have questions about it. The minister has no formal theology education and his wife does NOT support his ministry and wants to remain in her Jehova Witness Church. The church believes the women in the church can't ever assume leadership positions in the church like an elder or a deacon but could teach little children in the church as a leadership role. I have no desire or ability to teach children. I am really mad that my verbal prayer requests are screened or censored for political correction before the bible person sends them out after he reviews and pastes my words into his own words, this screening process doesn't happen with my husbands prayer requests. Also the church does not believe in the Trinity doctrine of the Bible in which I find questionable, but I'm not educated enough on this subject of Bible study. Also we worship on the Sabbath day, which seems okay with me. I feel repressed in this church and wonder if experts see or sense that this church has cult tendencies? Thank you.
