Summary

Are you confused over whether you have legitimate grounds for divorce? How should you respond to people who claim you’re cynical and oversensitive when you try to speak against emotional and spiritual abuse? What’s the best way to handle family members, especially children, who think you’re the bad guy in your abusive marriage? What if you’re separated but you just aren’t ready to divorce…and the clock keeps ticking? Limbo is a fun party game…and a lousy place to live. So let me offer some advice that will break you out of the ruts these difficult questions might have you stuck in. Highlights from this episode: - The three main Christian views on divorce (and how your belief in God informs your view on divorce) - Why the future has a hefty price tag (and how to determine what price you want to pay for which future) - What pigs and pearls have to do with hard conversations (it’s not the smell or the irritation) - Why Jesus is “in a ditch” instead of trying to convince other people they’re wrong (and how this example applies to us) - The effects of living in limbo (and I don’t mean the ridiculous, back-breaking game) Listen or download the transcript at flyingfreenow.com/156 FREE: I'll send you the first chapter of my book, Is It Me? Making Sense of Your Confusing Marriage. Just hop on my mailing list at flyingfreesisterhood.com/free-download. (I will NEVER spam you or sell your information.)
