Acerca del libro

Un matrimonio fallido no significa que hayas fracasado a los ojos de Dios.

Cuando Lysa TerKeurst experimentó la dolorosa y no deseada ruptura de su matrimonio después de casi 30 años, no sabía a quién acudir ni qué realmente podría ayudarla. Necesitaba entender qué dice la Biblia acerca del matrimonio y el divorcio, y también tener herramientas prácticas para atravesar las secuelas de esa pérdida.

Ahora, junto al Dr. en Teología Joel Muddamalle y al consejero profesional licenciado Jim Cress, Lysa te ofrece este recurso, respondiendo algunas de las preguntas más difíciles que surgen al enfrentar un divorcio no deseado, como:

  1. ¿Dios odia el divorcio?
  2. ¿Cómo dejo de sentir tanta ira por todo lo que me fue arrebatado?
  3. ¿Por qué Dios no detuvo esta tragedia?
  4. ¿Cómo camino hacia un futuro que nunca imaginé?
  5. ¿Cuánto tiempo me tomará sanar?

Ya sea que estés viviendo el dolor de un divorcio en este momento, procesando lo que ocurrió hace años o acompañando a alguien que amas en una temporada devastadora, la ayuda no está lejos y a Dios le importas profundamente.

Cómo sobrevivir a un divorcio no deseado ofrece estrategias prácticas y fundamentadas en la Biblia para enfrentar la pérdida, la vergüenza, la soledad y la injusticia de un matrimonio roto… y dar los primeros pasos hacia una nueva temporada llena de esperanza.

 

Surviving an Unwanted Divorce

A Failed Marriage Doesn’t Make You a Failure in God’s Eyes.

When Lysa TerKeurst experienced the painful and unwanted death of her marriage after nearly thirty years, she didn’t know who to turn to or what would actually help her. She needed to get her bearings on what the Bible really says about marriage and divorce. She also needed the tools to work through the fallout she was walking through. Now, Lysa, alongside theologian Dr. Joel Muddamalle and Licensed Professional Counselor Jim Cress, offers you that resource, answering some of your toughest questions about how to move on, even when your marriage doesn’t, such as:

  • Does God hate divorce?
  • How do I stop feeling so angry about all that has been taken from me?
  • Why hasn’t God stopped all this tragedy from happening?
  • How do I walk toward a future I never envisioned?
  • How long is it going to take to heal?

Whether you’re in the throes of a divorce, still processing things that happened years ago, or walking with someone you love through a devastating season, help is not far away and God deeply cares for you. Surviving an Unwanted Divorce offers biblically based, practical strategies for navigating loss, shame, intense loneliness, and the unfairness of it all as one life season ends . . . and a new hope-filled season begins.
