As a Christian divorce recovery leader for the past 20 years, I want our churches to be safe place for divorcees, yet often the opposite happens. Divorced Christians, even godly spouses, are judged and treated like quitters who took the easy way out. says Gretchen Baskerville, author of The Life-Saving Divorce.
How many divorced Evangelicals have stopped attending our churches, even though they love the Lord?
See the new data, released in February 2020, in the Christianity Today article, Despite Stigma, More Divorced Evangelicals Are Going to Church, that show that Evangelical churches are not doing a good job. Sure, a large number of divorced Evangelicals attend church frequently. But not nearly the number we would expect.
Gretchen walks you through the graphs, and gives reasons, examples, and explanations for why this is happening...why we are missing perhaps 1 million Evangelical divorcees. At the end she gives tips to pastors and leaders on how to turn this around.
About:

What is a Life-Saving Divorce? Nearly half of divorces in the U.S. are for very serious reasons: infidelity, sexual immorality, domestic violence, verbal/emotional abuse, or addictions. These are the Life-Saving Divorces. Many of these divorcees prayed, fasted, tried harder, went to counseling, bought Christian marriage books, forgave 70 times 7, turned the other cheek, and walked the extra mile again and again. As my friend Gina Kaye says, They didnt WANT a divorce, they NEEDED a divorce... to save their life and sanity.
