Opis

When Laura Petherbridge realized her marriage was ending, she asked the gut-wrenching question, "What do I do now?" Now Laura offers practical answers about divorce that she has found through her own experience and through two decades of caring for those grieving the loss of a marriage. In the midst of pain and confusion, you might also be asking questions such as these:

• How do I find where I belong when I no longer know my identity?
• If my spouse asks for forgiveness, should I go back?
• If I get an attorney, will my spouse think I'm giving up on our marriage forever?
• How do I figure out a budget on my own?
• What should I do when others criticize my ex-spouse in front of my kids?
• How do I reenter the workplace after years of staying home?
• How will I know when it's a good time to date again?
• Does God still care about me?
• Will I ever be happy again?

With straightforward, sensitive answers to these questions and others, Petherbridge offers real-life help, spiritual insights, and new hope for the future.
Includes reflection and discussion questions after each chapter and guidelines for those who love someone who is getting a divorce."
