April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. 整个月， Cedarville University’s 第九条 office would like to challenge the campus community to examine the 道路s in which we are sometimes less than loving as we focus on this theme:
“The Image I Reflect: Conversations About Respect, Consent, Power, and Healing”
This theme is meant to challenge us to look in the mirror and consider our beliefs and behaviors, to reflect on the 道路s that we are tempted to act toward another that could diminish their sexual dignity or objectify them.
Our focus this week is on 疗愈.

Spiritual Abuse in Relationships
Today’s post is from Celeste Hurley, Cedarville University's Confidential Advocate from Family Violence Prevention Center.
Philippians 2:3-5 “Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. 而, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. In your relationships with one another,
have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:”
One tactic that is used to gain power and control in a relationship is spiritual abuse. Spiritual abuse happens when someone uses spiritual or religious beliefs to hurt, 恐慌, 或者控制你. This could be accomplished through forcing someone to follow a particular religious script, restricting or mocking someone's beliefs, or using beliefs to limit and control the other person. This additionally impacts a person by isolating them from who Christ is and what it means to be loved in a genuine and noncontractual方式.

Think Before You Click: Using Dating Apps
Dating apps have become popular among college students, but are they safe to use? Is it possible to use them in a God-honoring and self-protecting
道路? It is, but you should follow important safety guidelines.
Let's start with two general principles:
- Know the general reputation of a dating app before you sign up. Not all dating apps are created equally in standards of conduct and the culture of participation. There are some apps out there that wisdom would tell you to not even sign up and get started with a group that is not likely to be edifying.
- Make sure you are emotionally ready for a relationship. As an image-bearer, you are valuable and do not need anyone else to complete you. If you are not ready to date and navigate a relationship, that is OK. The best thing you can do to protect yourself is to not step into online relationship spaces while you are in a season of 疗愈 or when personal growth should be the priority.
