#377: How to Care For a Friend (Or Yourself) When the Marriage Doesn’t Survive

Marriages don’t always survive the tough stuff. Wounds heal. Addicts find sobriety. Forgiveness is extended. Life comes back — sometimes without reconciliation. In this episode, Juli is joined by Stacey Sadler, who shares her story of wearing thin the pages of "The Power of a Praying Wife" and then overcoming the shame of filing for divorce. Today she is a certified counselor and helps other women set boundaries, work toward recovery and, when necessary, leave abusive marriages. You’ll hear how God rejoices over the woman (or man) who finds healing, protection, and wholeness — even when the journey begins with God's provision of divorce.
