A Prayer for your Christian marriage …
Heavenly Father, you are wise beyond our comprehension, holy and set apart, full of grace. We come before you today to lift up those hurting deeply, men and women who are enduring tough hardships in seemingly impossible situations, souls who have cried countless tears and who have endured so much. I ask you to show Your grace mightily today to them. Give them a peace that only can come from you, strength that can only come from you, wisdom that comes from Your Word, and the teachers who reveal Your truth. I pray for Your hands and feet here on this earth to intervene in unexpected ways. Will you bring in wise counselors, teachers, solid friends, strangers, angels, whoever can come beside those navigating these big decisions in their future and in their marriages. Bring them warm shoulders, wise words, and sympathetic hearts. Lord, I pray for these marriages. Save these unions, protect these families. Do miraculous restoration wherever possible. Thank you for loving us. Thank you for sending your son to us. And thank you for reaching down, coming down and walking among us. It is in the Holy name of Jesus that we pray.Amen

Considering a Divorce?
Your decision to file for divorce is a HUGE one. One that affects you, your spouse, family members, kids, possibly your work, living situation, church, friends, LOTS. Let's take a deep look.
Divorce can leave you feeling like a shattered vase, the pieces of your life scattered and unrecognizable. The idea of “starting over” can feel overwhelming, even impossible, when you're still grappling with grief, anger, and confusion. But starting over isn’t about pretending the vase is whole again overnight. It’s about carefully gathering those fragments and deciding what you want to create with them. It’s about building something new, even if it's imperfect.
Divorce, even when amicable, often leaves a residue of difficult emotions. Among these, shame can be particularly debilitating. Shame whispers that you’re flawed, a failure, or unworthy of love. Understanding and addressing this shame is crucial for your divorce recovery journey.
The first 90 days after a divorce are often the hardest. The legal battles might be over, but the emotional ones are just beginning. You're navigating uncharted territory, feeling a mix of relief, grief, fear, and maybe even a little bit of excitement. This survival guide is designed to help you not just get through these initial weeks, but to start building a foundation for a brighter future.
Divorce can be difficult, but there are many myths that can make it harder. Let’s set the record straight with these truths that Christians need to hear.
