Redemptive Divorce

I ordered this book for our son who is going through a divorce. Great book for those who question whether or not, as a christian, divorce is accepted. I highly recommend this book to those going through divorce. Order placed and shipped timely fashion.

Great, biblical advice

This book was very helpful and clearly laid out a plan that someone could follow if they were interested in one last effort at restoration of a failing marriage. It offers a thoughtful explanation of how "the church" has failed--in many respects--when it comes to counseling and supporting Christians who are in a painful/destructive marriage. It is balanced and suggests that forgiveness and healing for BOTH parties should be the goal. It directly tackles some of the most vexxing questions one faces in trying to figure out "What would Jesus want me to do in this situation?" I loved it and bought more copies to share with friends, my counselor and pastor.

A different look at Christian marital difficulties

I thought this book offered a different approach to the troubled Christian marriage. It was easy to read, and so sensitive to hurting people. I appreciated the Biblical support for the ideas in the book, and I can already think of people who could use this in their lives.

This is a wonderful book!

Whether you are married,divorced, or single, this book is a wonderful one to read! For me this book has open up opportunities to talk with friends of mine who are recently going through a divorce. Thank you Mark for seeking God's Word, and following His direction by writing this book!
