Supporting brothers through the storm: helping divorced Christian men
When a man goes through a divorce, it's like a bomb has exploded in his life. Everything is affected, including his identity, his dreams and plans, his relationships, his finances, and his physical, emotional, and spiritual health.
If he is a Christian, then he expects to find support and help from other men in his church. Instead, he often finds a cold shoulder. As a result, most Christian men who go through a divorce leave their church, and 30% of them walk away from their faith altogether.
This episode provides practical ways that you can provide support and encouragement to your divorced Christian brother.
