Hi, y’all. Pull up a chair. Let’s have a serious talk.

Marriage is a covenant relationship that’s meant to be lifelong. Sadly there are those who break their promise of fidelity and the fallout is painful and confusing.

Biblically, the person who has been wronged may divorce, but may I encourage those in this situation to pause and prayerfully consider God’s ability to redeem and restore.

I do understand that I’m suggesting you walk down a difficult road (and I do know that not every marriage can be saved). Restoration is usually a painful and complex journey. However, if both spouses are willing to work together it may be the better choice. Divorce has serious repercussions for all involved. If the marriage can be mended, you will be saving everyone a lot of grief and showcasing God’s amazing ability to breathe life into a dying marriage.

If you find yourself in such a situation because of your own or your spouse’s infidelity (physical affair, emotional affair, porn/erotica use), I encourage you to not go it alone. Become educated and build a community of supportive people who will walk with you through the restoration process.

I bring all this to y’all today because Bonny of OysterBed7 has made me aware of a good resource in dealing with infidelity. A team of fine folk through Awesome Marriage has created The Online Affair Recovery Course.
