About this listen
Have you found yourself in a difficult marriage where you are abused or your spouse has been unfaithful? Have you wondered if you are allowed to get a divorce or felt condemned by others if you have been divorced?
The Bible speaks a lot about divorce and has answers to all our questions, but we need to understand first what the Scriptures were saying in the time they were spoken into. Understanding God’s heart about divorce is not about rules void of compassion. His commands are full of love and have our best interests in mind. And sometimes the scenarios we find ourselves up against in this life are not cut and dry.
Some beliefs I had about divorce were handed down to me. I think that’s the thing with theology. We have things handed down to us that we don’t ever examine for ourselves to see what scripture is really saying. Then, when devastating circumstances happen, we aren’t prepared and don’t know how to navigate traumatic events.
Listen in as biblical scholars weigh in on this difficult topic of divorce. But more importantly, listen in to what Jesus is saying and what He isn't saying.
