Andrew and Julie Weller reside in Adelaide and are active members of the Christadelphian church or ecclesia that meets at Cumberland. For the past decade, they have dedicated themselves to supporting victims of Family & Domestic Violence, striving to raise awareness and reduce its prevalence.
In 2016, they authored a discussion paper and launched a website, HEAR BELIEVE ACT aimed at increasing awareness of Family & Domestic Violence.
In 2024, Andrew and Julie published a book titled:
Breaking the Cycle: A Scriptural Approach to Domestic Violence.
The book covers says:
Breaking the Cycle pulls back the curtain on the hidden reality of domestic violence, revealing its impact where we least expect it. This book uncovers the painful cycle that binds victims, and the subtle ways abuse takes root. We might wonder how such harm could exist in our faith community, or what Christ-like support it demands. With a Scriptural lens and the use of heartfelt stories, the authors guide readers to recognize abuse, respond with compassion and to set at liberty the oppressed. Through reflections and practical guidance, Breaking the Cycle is hopeful and empowers readers to break free from silence and be a source of light in the face of darkness.
The book is available from Amazon or at Christadelphian Tidings Books or HEAR BELIEVE ACT where you can purchase a hard copy or download a free softcopy.
The Internation version can also be downloaded from here.
