Heartbreak doesn’t send a calendar invite. One moment you’re doing everything “right”—serving, parenting, showing up—and the next you’re staring at a truth you never thought would touch your life. Greg opens up about growing up with an abusive, alcoholic father and the vow he made to become a different kind of man, then walks us through the gut-punch of discovering an affair, the sleepless months of bargaining, and the quiet, stubborn decision to let go.

We talk about the hidden drift that can sneak into a marriage and why warning lights are so easy to miss until the dashboard is flashing. Greg shares the vulnerable parts—anger that started to look like his father’s, nights on the porch to avoid rooms that hurt, and the moment in a bar when a clear inner voice asked, “What are you doing?” He explains how forgiveness became less a moral stance and more a survival skill: necessary for co‑parenting, necessary for sanity, and essential for rebuilding trust with someone new. Along the way, we tackle church culture’s messy response to divorce, the unfair simplicity of taking sides, and the practical tools that help you heal without rehearsing pain.

If you’re navigating betrayal, divorce, or the aftermath of a broken promise, this conversation offers unvarnished honesty and usable hope. You’ll hear how to set boundaries, make small daily commitments that rebuild trust, and lay down the backpack of rocks you’ve carried for too long. Listen for Greg’s simple, repeatable practices that turn forgiveness into freedom and help you step into a future that isn’t defined by your past.
