Every person has a story, and some parts of those stories feel too hard to tell.

You were listening to, if you only knew, a mini series brought to you by the Happy Hour with Jamie Ivy Podcast.

On today's show, my friend Jen Jett joins me and opens up about her, if you only knew, and it's the D word, divorce.

Jen has walked a hard road these past few years, and her ability to handle it with such grace, and truth, and love, and tenderness.

It's something that is so very endearing about her. When she explains her fears with talking about divorce, you're going to understand her fears, and you're going to maybe see yourself in some of those fears.

Divorce is a hard subject, especially for those of us in the church, and I am so proud of Jen for how she's handling her story.

It will bring you hope, no matter what, your, if you only knew, moment is in your own life.

Also, she mentions a song by Rita Springer. I'm just going to tell you to go look it up. I'm going to promise that you're going to have it on repeat.

Today is our last episode in the series, and I sure hope that you have not only loved every single one of these, but that your heart has grown more in love with the Father, and that you have more trust for him in your life as well.

I'm a big believer that when we share our stories, our mess, our journey, that God gets glory in the ways that He has moved in our hearts, in our lives, in our souls, in the midst of our sin, in our shame, in our struggle, or whatever it might be.

If you have loved every single one of these nine episodes in this mini series, I would love two things from you.

Number one, I would love it if you share it with your friends.

Check out Jamie ivy.com, which is my webpage, for a blog post with all of the episodes in one post that's going to make it super easy for you to share with friends.

I've heard such great feedback about this mini series that I want everyone to hear it.

Number two, if you haven't purchased your own copy of If You Only New, which is the book that I just released at the end of January, I would love for you to get yourself a copy.

My goal in writing this book was for me to share my own story about finding freedom from shame in my life, and I want to encourage you as a reader to look for ways to find your own freedom through the hope in Jesus.

Many times that starts with just saying some things that allowed to a girlfriend, just like all of these guests have talked about in this mini series.

Guys, you can get the book wherever books are sold or check out if you only knew book.net.

Guys, before we start, I want to tell you about one of my favorite things in the world, and that is C.H.A. Chips.

You know in Texas, we love our chips and salsa, and we found out about the C.H.A. brand a couple of years ago, and now we've gotten to know the people behind the brand, which makes me love them even more.

C.H.A. is a healthy Mexican-American food brand that makes grain-free and paleo-friendly tortillas and tortilla chips.

And let me tell you, if you have some allergies in your house or if you're just trying to eat healthier, this is an amazing company that's going to give you great food that's going to have all the things left out of it that you can't have.
