Weigh Concerns of Domestic Violence

Another vital issue to consider in light of your marital history is any risk of domestic violence upon confrontation. If physical risks or retaliation of any kind are present, and especially if history in the relationship confirms this, you must seek counsel before any direct confrontation. Only do so in a location and overall manner that does not place you in danger. If this is part of your marital dynamic, do not proceed with confrontation until you have full outside support and safety measures in place. Holding this conversation with the awareness of another person, and potentially in a public and visible location, can be key. It is emphatically important that you heed this directive. Listen to your instincts and wise counsel, and do not dismiss any clear risks or even nagging concerns you hold about your physical safety.

Next, we’ll look at whether your husband’s response when you confront him reflects worldly or godly sorrow.
