Download or read book Cracked: a Biblical Perspective on Divorce written by Bishop Henry R. Griffin and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2016-10-27 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In my world of Conservative Christian policies a divorce was unthinkable. Men and women whose training and background actively prohibited divorce and were very quick to chastise and condemn divorcees. Therefore, this work simply began as a group of self-help notes designed to help me survive the many unpleasant conversations I had with my religious friends. I fully recognize some of the concepts provided in this book may contradict certain Conservative Christian viewpoints. However, they are all 100% scriptural. This book was written to bring comfort to those who have experienced a divorce and want to remarry. To accomplish this goal I had to crack the language code. Too, many of our modern bibles have adjusted the language to promote the Conservative Christian story. I did not write this book to promote divorce. Within the pages of this writing are helpful nuggets designed to assist with conversations between husbands and wives. Ive also included strategies to help maintain a healthy marital relationship. Finally, this book was designed to assist individuals with overcoming the victimization, stigmatization, isolation, embarrassment, shame, and the other sorrows based in ignorance that accompany a divorce in certain religious communities.
