Divorce is a path no one ever plans to have to travel. Regardless of what circumstances lead a couple to divorce, the journey can come with plenty of grief and shame. In this episode, I’ve invited my friend Mark to share his experience of entering marriage and becoming a parent soon after.
When nurturing the marriage took a backseat to the ongoing demands of raising kids, feelings of loneliness and disconnection drove the decision-making for Mark and his ex-wife. The consequences of those choices were a heavy load to bear, but certainly not beyond what God could- and would redeem.
In this episode, you’ll learn
- The desperate circumstances that prepped Mark’s heart to receive accept Christ
- The ways Mark's hindsight reveals how his loneliness fueled his longing for marriage
- How shame was used to try to change behavior at the church he attended
- The shame messages that Mark wrestled with most
- Why Mark was so desperate to escape his emotional pain
