God’s heart is with the brokenhearted, and that includes those who are struggling with the pain of divorce.
Today’s episode explores the topic of divorce, hard hearts, and being made in the image of God. If you or someone you know is struggling in this area, this episode explores only the scriptural understanding of divorce. For practical support on this topic, we have other resources available or you can contact our in-house counselling team to book a free one-time phone consultation. Please note that due to the content of this episode, listener discretion is advised.
