vows are taken 'until death parts us'
But when a 'marriage
breakdown' happens, and one person leaves, and even
enters into a marriage-type relationship with another
person, what then? Is the original marriage still there?
This book is written
by men and women who have been through the deep hurt
and confusion of a marriage breakdown. At the time
of writing, none of them has been reconciled to husband
or wife. But each has come into a transforming experience
of God's faithful and forgiving love. As a result,
they know themselves to be called by God to be faithful
in love to their estranged husband or wife, no matter
what, and they tell of God's faithful love sustaining
them in that.
One contributor writes: 'My
marriage is not over; in fact I am now more
actively and consciously involved in my marriage
than I ever was before!'
'I know no book like
it for the matters of which it treats. ..a volume of
loving wisdom and honest sharing. ..a gift in these
sad times when divorce is compounding itself at an
alarming rate, not only in what we call secular society,
but in churches all over the world.'
