We received this question from one of our awesome listeners and viewers. Thank you so much in advance for submitting that question to us. Here it is. My husband had an affair about two and a half years ago. I have forgiven him and both of us have made much needed changes. Our marriage is a lot better now, but my husband's guilt and shame is driving him away from the church. He feels great guilt and regret when

attending. I don't think he believes God will forgive him. I need a Christ-centered marriage. I've

We are wanting to point you to Christ and so we thank you for spending some time with us,

giving us your ears, your eyes, your attention. We hope that it's fruitful. We trust that it will

be. And let's just dive right into this. Okay. We're answering this question that I read

before we did the intro.

And just to be honest, it's a little risky, I think, to take on a question of this magnitude.

And it's actually, I think it's really hard.

It's difficult to serve this couple well because we're not walking alongside you.

Whoever you are, you ask this question anonymously.

We want to honor that. We don't know your

situation. We don't even know, frankly, what you mean by the various words that you're using,
