In Black and White Bible, Black and Blue Wife Ruth Tucker recounts her harrowing story of abuse at the hands of her husband, a well-educated, charming preacher. Weaving together her own shocking story, stories of other women, and powerful stories of husbands who truly have demonstrated Christ's love to their wives, with reflection on biblical, theological, historical, and contemporary issues surrounding domestic violence, she makes a compelling case for mutuality in marriage and helps women and men become more aware of potential dangers in a doctrine of male headship.
