How do you heal from a divorce and renew your faith with God and others? That is the tough topic that we tackle as I sit down with a newly divorced father of two and a presiding elder who went through a public divorce as a pastor of her church. We dive deep as we talk through how divorce impacted our faith journey, how our communities reacted and the lessons that we've learned through the experience. It's a healing conversation as we realize that instead of suffering through pain in silence, we can come together and support each other in love.
