A Failed Marriage Doesn’t Make You a Failure in God’s Eyes

When Lysa TerKeurst experienced the painful and unwanted death of her marriage after nearly thirty years, she didn't know who to turn to or what would actually help her. She needed to get her bearings on what the Bible really says about marriage and divorce. She also needed the tools to work through the fallout she was walking through. Now, Lysa, alongside theologian Dr. Joel Muddamalle and Licensed Professional Counselor Jim Cress, offers you that resource, answering some of your toughest questions about how to move on, even when your marriage doesn’t, such as:

• Does God hate divorce?
• How do I stop feeling so angry about all that has been taken from me?
• Why hasn’t God stopped all this tragedy from happening?
• How do I walk toward a future I never envisioned?
• How long is it going to take to heal?

Whether you’re in the throes of a divorce, still processing things that happened years ago, or walking with someone you love through a devastating season, help is not far away and God deeply cares for you. Surviving an Unwanted Divorce offers biblically based, practical strategies for navigating loss, shame, intense loneliness, and the unfairness of it all as one life season ends . . . and a new hope-filled season begins.

I Needed This SO Much

I am just now going through a divorce after 17 years with a covert narcissist. It's been brutal. I realized, belatedly, my whole relationship was of being exploited, not loved. It's been savagely painful. This book brought so much clarity. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart.

Life after loss

My wish is that I had this book many years ago. It clarified many of the feelings that I have hidden within because so many around me condemned divorce and thought “ you made your bed, you sleep in it.” We were in court 27 months Years later I married and our value for God’s love matched. He died from an unexpected heart attack and even though the grief from the loss of his love is different, this book helped me in seeing the steps of grief more clearly. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has suffered loss of a mate.

Practical & Real with professional perspectives

This was helpful from a real and raw perspective of an actual experience. I also appreciated the counselors corner and a theologically trained perspective. Good stuff! It’s refreshing to know that marriage doesn’t have to be like a prison sentence that God is there for us even in an unwanted divorce.

Great resource

this book is a helpful resource for those going through a divorce. There are both practical and Biblical helps.

That I was able to listen to someone that had went through the same thing.

I love all the verses and information given to help me through this new journey.
