In Part 2 of her interview on Allie Beth Stuckey’s Relatable podcast, June Hunt continues the conversation on forgiveness and abuse. June explains what forgiveness meant in the context of Jesus’ teaching and why believers are called to model His example. She addresses the seriousness of domestic abuse and emphasizes that emotional abuse is present in every form of abuse. June clarifies that God did not design anyone to endure ongoing mistreatment and that allowing people to “get away with” abusive behavior is neither healthy nor biblical.
