"This is the first book about marriage from a Christian perspective that doesn't gloss over the hard stuff."
This book is for every wife, whether newlywed or married for fifty-plus years. Most women recognize that healthy marriage requires both commitment and hard work, but how can a wife continue to thrive when marriage goes awry?
Hope for the Hurting Wife is a thirty-day devotional journey that meets hurting and heartbroken wives right in the midst of a difficult marriage and gently encourages them to find hope that truly lasts. Rebekah and Jen know many wives truly wish to avoid divorce, but the pain and suffering experienced when marriage doesn't go as planned is very real. Through personal stories of heartache and scriptural insight, they address topics such as:
- Moving forward after trauma
- Loving even when you feel unloved
- Protecting your heart
- Understanding the power of choice
- Trusting God while waiting for redemption
Hope. Courage. Confidence.
It's never too late to experience these realities, even in a troubled marriage!
About the Author: God gave Rebekah a front row seat to the work of His redemption in her marriage. After surviving the initial trauma, she determined to fix her eyes solely on Jesus and trusted Him to carry her through the storm that followed. Rebekah shares not only her heartache, but also her great hope with other wives so they might know God still redeems, even in the toughest of circumstances. Now, years later, she praises God for restoring her marriage. Rebekah co-leads an online community for struggling wives around the world and shares encouragement for those who face the daunting task of surviving the "for worse" of marriage.
