Welcome to my blog. I am assuming you have entered it because you are hurting, or know someone who is hurting, as a result of a stressed or broken relationship.
I, too, have been in this situation. My marriage ended over 20 years ago. I decided that if God was true to His promises, then I could get through this heartache if I trusted in Him. The footwork would have to be mine, but He would control the direction.
In my search for healing, I discovered very little material was available on the subject of Christian divorce support and recovery. Also, many pastors did not want to address the subject at all, reciting “God hates divorce.” This is true, but He loves the hurting.
Via the Bible, prayer, and many Christian authors’ works, I compiled my research. The Holy Spirit helped me present it in book form, “The Divorce Journey, A Christian’s Travel from Heartache through Healing to Happiness.” (This book can be purchased through my website, ChristianDivorceSupport.org.)
God also led me to facilitate numerous divorce support groups. Along the way, he brought me my wonderful husband, Schuyler, to help in this ministry. We have been involved in this ministry for over 18 years. We have watched hundreds heal from their heartache and live happier, healthier lives.
I urge you to find a Christian divorce support group in your area. If you do not have one, feel free to contact me via email at sandywallace@httpchri.wwwmi3-ss18.a2hosted.com. And please take a look at my website www.christiandivorcesupport.org for additional information. Also visit my blog from time to time. I intend to use it to provide helpful hints and to facilitate discussions that may benefit others as well.
Remember, marriage was never your purpose in life. It was never meant to be a “fix” to your loneliness or unhappiness. It is a blessing God gives us. He can restore your marriage and He can provide a new mate to you but He first wants you to find your completeness in Him.
