Overcoming-Comprehensive Handbook to Recognize, Remove and Recover from Abuse is a book filled with hope.

Charlene Quint, has written this book, so that you do not have to feel alone anymore.

About Charlene Quint (from www.abusecare.org):

Ms. Quint is also an attorney specializing in representing women who are escaping abusive marriages and relationships, including obtaining orders of protection and divorce. Charlene speaks publicly to community groups, clergy, counselors, attorneys, educators, and other professionals to educate and equip them in the area of domestic abuse. She is passionate about reaching the church, including clergy, church leaders, and lay leaders about domestic abuse that is so prevalent, yet also largely ignored, in the church. Charlene co-chairs the Partnership for a Safer Lake County, a consortium of organizations in Lake County, Illinois, whose goal is to stop violence in all forms, and co-leads support groups for A Safe Place, Lake County’s only organization exclusively dedicated to transforming the lives of survivors of domestic abuse.

This handbook is designed to help women in abusive relationships find the answers they need while helping the counselors and pastors who serve them provide wise counsel and guidance.

Overcoming is organized into three sections: helping the women recognize the signs and tactics of abuse, remove themselves safely from their abuser and recover from the abuse. No longer do we have to standby and do nothing. We have the tools thanks to Charlene and her willingness to help others.

It is important for one to heal and that is primarily through getting to know Father God, and knowing and believing what He says about them.

I have been abused in a few of my past relationships, but did not realize it at the time. There were times that I truly felt alone and did not know what to do. I honestly wish that I had this handbook out then. I could have used it, but I am going to use my experience and help others, now that I am better armed.
