Everyone has different battles to face in their lives, and for some, one of those battles is narcissism. If you have been victimized by a narcissist or even suspect that you may have narcissistic tendencies, this excellent series from Dr. David Hawkins, an expert on the subject, will give you hope! There is healing and redemption in the mercy of Christ! There are also many professional resources available for all those who are suffering either from narcissism or those who are being victimized by it.
Don’t be discouraged. I love this verse from Isaiah 43:19, which reminds me that God is always doing new things and making a way for His people through the wilderness:
Behold, I am doing a new thing;
now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?
I will make a way in the wilderness
and rivers in the desert.

Dr. David Hawkins (3-Part Series)
Most traditional marriage counselors will tell you that marriage is a two-way street, but Dr. David Hawkins disagrees. He says that this is “woefully inadequate for most problems” and confirms that many men struggle with dominating, dismissing, and deflecting their wives in their relationships. Dr. Hawkins is the owner and clinical director of the Marriage Recovery Center and the Emotional Abuse Institute. He’s also a bestselling author and the host of the “Mad In Love” podcast. Dr. Hawkins discusses the “maze of confusion” that emotional abusers and narcissists can weave and how women are most often – although not always – victimized by it. Dr. Hawkins also explains what emotional abuse is, what it does to a victim, and the key factor to escaping the trauma: intervention!
