In this episode of the All-Consuming Grace Podcast, Paul and Rebecca Turner continue their eye-opening series, Weaponized Grace. Drawing from the honesty of Psalm 41 and Psalm 56, they reveal the most common tactics abusers use—tactics that often show up in homes, marriages, friendships, and even churches.

Understanding how abusers operate is the first step toward protecting your family, strengthening your relationships, and breaking unhealthy cycles. But Paul and Rebecca get more pointed: they invite you to honestly examine your own life to ensure you’re not unintentionally using these destructive patterns with the people you love most.

If you care about healthy families, safe relationships, and living out God’s grace in practical ways, this episode will equip and encourage you. Don’t miss this important conversation on recognizing abuse, guarding your home, and choosing grace-driven love over manipulation and control.

Abuse is real. It is destructive. And far too often, it hides behind religious language and misapplied Scripture. In this eye-opening series, Paul and Rebecca Turner of the All Consuming Grace Podcast confront the hard realities of abuse in the church, in relationships, and in families.

Part 1 begins with the crucial question: What is abuse? From the pages of Scripture, they highlight examples of spiritual, emotional, psychological, physical, sexual, and relational abuse, showing how these patterns have existed since the beginning.

But the heart of this conversation goes even deeper: how the very message of God’s grace—given to teach us how to live (Titus 2:11–12)—has sometimes been weaponized against victims, silencing their pain and excusing the abuser. Paul and Rebecca bring biblical clarity and compassionate truth, exposing lies that keep people in bondage and pointing back to the true purpose of grace: freedom, healing, and godly living.

If you’ve ever asked questions like:

• What does the Bible really say about abuse?

• How can grace be twisted into a tool of control?

• Where does God stand when abuse happens?

…then this episode is for you. Join the conversation and be equipped to see abuse through the lens of truth, not distortion.

In this controversial episode of the All Consuming Grace Podcast, hosts Paul and Rebecca follow up to the question raised in episode 21: Has the church lost its way? Today, we uncover WHY the church has lost its way. Together, we expose how, many churches have too often reduced grace to an academic exercise—turning the life-changing truth of the gospel into nothing more than information to be debated. Sadly, believers use Scripture and key passages to back up this notion. We further reveal how this mindset has stripped the church of its power. The grace of God is not just information to be known—it is the very work of the Holy Spirit consuming us and transforming our lives. If you’ve ever wondered why the church feels powerless, this conversation will open your eyes to the difference between knowing about grace and being consumed by it.

Has the church drifted from God’s design and lost its way? In this episode of All Consuming Grace, Paul and Rebecca ask two crucial questions every believer must wrestle with:

1️⃣ Are we guilty of seeking messages that only “scratch our itching ears” (II Timothy 4:3)—gravitating to grace buzzwords and phrases—while ignoring the transforming power of God’s Word?

2️⃣ Are we guilty of running the church the world’s way? Have we traded God's simple and straightforward design for the Body of Christ for the “5 B’s”—buildings, budgets, business, bringing people in, and boards—things God never intended or instituted?

This challenging conversation calls us to reexamine the churches we attend, ask hard questions, and be honest with ourselves if we truly desire lasting change. True grace doesn’t just comfort—it CONSUMES!
