Welcome to the Storyteller's Live podcast, where everyday people share real and personal stories.

Some are profound and challenging, while others are more common and relatable shared with honesty and humor.

But all of these stories reveal what God can do in our lives when we trust him with the details.

Thanks for joining us.

Hi, everyone. This is your host, Kelly, from the Storytellers Live team. On each episode, a different woman shares her story, often in a live setting, with the bottom line being that God is good. Delphine, our storyteller for this episode, gives a very honest glimpse into her life, both before and after, her

marriage crumbled.

And even though her story centers around what she calls her biggest failure and the Big

D divorce, it also highlights lessons that she's learned through her roles as a daughter,

wife, mom, business owner, and a follower of Christ.

Through her story, she challenges you to make the

right choices even when it's the harder thing to do and to fight for what's important,

especially for your marriage and your family. Delphine also shares on a very personal level

about the labels that she had placed on herself, the good that comes from hard love,

and discovering the gift of a new purpose in her life that has arisen out of her choices about how to live life

moving forward and how to glorify God through the process. We all have that choice to make every day.

episode devoted to each one.

Just a quick note that we have edited out Delphine's last name, her kids' names, the schools

they go to just to protect their privacy.

So if you hear a weird silence where it cuts out, that is my fancy editing technique

because I didn't know how to do a beep. But I just know you're going to be encouraged and challenged and empowered by Delphine's story. So here she is. Good morning. So y'all, I work at Daxco and I speak for Daxco. And so I'm fairly used to speaking. But then with Don and Robin were like, would y'all do this? Would you do this? And it felt like they're asking me to run naked in Jordan hair. It was like, I don't know. So I am pretty much a private person. And this, so I've, you know, I've just been praying about this, praying about this. And it's a story that so many of us are going through. And I was like, okay, I just need to do it. She put some Instagram posts out there this week. I don't know if you all saw him, but it was like, okay, still doing it. Still doing it. And then this morning, I mean, just to show you that if you listen, God is always around you this morning. and I got my, just in the devotional it was,

but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another,
