Abstract
The problem of Gender-based violence (GBV) against married women in Zambia is high among the challenges the Pentecostal church is facing. Often the church is reluctant to address this serious violation of human rights. Rather, the church has concentrated more on preaching, emphasizing health, wealth and deliverance and forgetting the social justice of human life. The aim of this study is to develop an evangelical response model for the Pentecostal church in Zambia by demonstrating strategies on how the church can make a positive contribution to assist married women who are victims of GBV. This study will examine clear biblical and theological foundations to address the issue of GBV in Zambian churches
