Is domestic violence merely a marriage problem? Often, counselors and pastors will be tempted to reduce domestic abuse and its cause to the home, but domestic violence is first and foremost a sin problem with the home merely serving as the context in which this sin is expressed. Episode 5 of Quick to Listen is a brief selection from lecture 3.2 of Dr. Mark A. Garcia's upcoming MAR/MDiv module, Domestic Violence in Theology & Ministry. In this selection, Dr. Garcia considers the problem of reducing domestic abuse to merely a marriage problem.
