From the Author My prayer for "Dealing with Divorce" has always been that it would bring hope and healing to thousands of hurting teens. Teens - I know you are out there, many of you suffering in silence. How do I know? Because I was once just like you. My own parents divorced when I was a toddler. My mom then remarried and divorced during my teen years. Divorce is the worst. Let's be honest for a moment, shall we? No words, medication, counselors, or programs will "fix" your life. Not even this book will make all your problems magically disappear. But here is the secret: only your Savior can bring peace to your hurting soul. If you are willing to do some difficult work, this book will draw you closer to Him and bring about the healing you desire. Are you ready? Then let the journey begin. From the Back Cover "If you've watched your parents get divorced, you know how much it stinks. A lot of times there's blame, anger, frustration, confusion, fear, and a ton of other emotions and issues that come up--just as much for you as for your parents. But you don't have to hold on to those emotions anymore. In this six-week study, you can begin healing from the hurt you experienced when your parents split up--whether it happened recently or when you were younger. You'll have a chance to hear stories of other people's experiences with divorce, look at what the Bible says about family and marriage, as well as anger, guilt, and forgiveness, and explore what you're feeling in the midst of it all. In the end, you'll begin to heal as you find some hope for the future. Your family has changed. There's not much that you can do about that. But you can change your heart as you begin to let go of the pain you've been carrying."
