The Loving Truth

Navigating Faith and Divorce


Listen Later

How do you navigate divorce when you have a strong faith (and a strong desire for the “traditional” family)? What happens when you divorce “the nice guy” and become the villain? 

Today on the podcast, I’m speaking with special guests Noam Raucher & Leeron Tal, co-hosts of The Jewish Divorce Podcast, about their personal journeys through divorce, plus the different ways men & women interpret confrontation and “fighting,” why we so often feel unprepared for the reality of marriage, and the additional pressures of marriage (and divorce) when you have a strong faith.

You’ll also hear us talk about what makes a marriage “successful” (besides longevity) and what Noam and Leeron wish they’d known before going through divorce… 

“As a Rabbi, I have to remind myself and the people I serve: Our ‘mistakes’ make us more human.” - Noam Raucher

You'll Learn:

2:44 - “Everything in my life was great… except my marriage.” 
6:45 - Her a-ha moment happened when she realized: Her kids were scared 
11:31 - Marriage felt like his next “right” step

17:02 - Men & women perceive confrontation (and fighting) differently 
21:02 - What it feels like to “wobble” in your decision
26:16 - The pressure of marriage & divorce when you have a strong faith 
30:55 - When you’re going through divorce & it feels too hard to talk with other couples
34:10 - We need a new ‘success’ marker than longevity… 
37:01 - What do Noam & Leeron wish they’d known before divorce
