Overview

The Old Testament recounts the story of King Saul, a charismatic and righteous man chosen by God to be king over his people. Though favored by God, Saul turns rebellious and mad, driven by an obsession to kill his most loyal and faithful servant, David, who doesn't stop honoring Saul. Like David, Marine finds herself loving and fearing a man who is set over her to guide and protect her. Like King Saul, her husband Loammi turns from a charming leader to a rebellious, mad, narcissistic, and victim-playing abuser. This is my story, mirrored in the Word of God, providing me with answers I have sought for years and helping me understand what was wrong with my husband, as I walked as a child of God praying for a miracle to heal our abusive marriage. This book is for all the women who know the pain of domestic abuse and seek to understand what a loving wife, a partner, should do. As I share my story, my hope is to encourage you to search your unique story and answers in the Bible.

I couldn't put this book down! The author's beautifully, lyrically written story has all the elements of a gripping novel, but with the unmistakable ring of truth. . . . Gaillot's story will help readers understand the mind of an abuser and why it is not always in God's plan to let a marriage succeed. This amazing book will shine a light of hope for others walking the same path. --Jennifer Anderson-Easthouse, writer and editor This is an amazing book of self-discovery, spiritual revelation, and the display of faith in action. The realness almost jumps off the page, and believe me, the author decides that there will be no victims here. . . . The similarities drawn between King Saul and David's relationship, as well as Hosea and Gomer's, to that of Loammi and Marine are a perfect application of these stories in the Bible. --Christea Montgomery, minister As another woman who has suffered through the confusion and turmoil of an abusive relationship, I fully identify with this book's narrative. The biblical references let readers know that it is a tale immortal. Gaillot writes with beautiful prose and a clear sense of her emotional experience. Hopefully the book will deepen humanity's understanding of the complexities and shattered souls of those experiencing domestic abuse in our society. --Debra L. Zimmerman, retired government employee Married to King Saul is the story of a woman's unwavering devotion to her Christian faith and her struggle to keep her family together despite the challenges of her husband's personal dilemmas. . . . Despite the difficult topic addressed, this story will speak hope to women in similar situations and serve as an inspiration to help them walk in faith and trust God. --Nancy Dolce, career coach Married to King Saul reveals the courageous, God-centered journey to freedom from an abusive relationship that is both harrowing and inspiring. --Patricia Teefy, educator
