#62: Moving Towards Divorce - Part 1

This week on RL Radio: Moving Toward Divorce - Part 1

We are delighted to have another conversation with Elizabeth from the RLW team! As you will hear, we recorded this episode in May on her, as she said, “would be” anniversary.  Oh, the timing. 

We didn’t know this when we recorded the episode, but our podcast producers shared recently that Elizabeth’s first time on our podcast (Episode #48, linked below) is the most listened to episode!  I am SO not surprised.

We received several questions from listeners asking for us to talk more about what it might look like to prepare for divorce if the path forward starts to potentially include that.  Elizabeth shared several things to consider including:  support, being aware of trauma in the church, having others that will ask the hard questions and challenge motivations (see note below on Psalm 139:23-24), pacing self and journeying well, grieving well (and leaning in like a buffalo),  and finally, reclaiming spaces and places and areas of our hearts.

We are so glad YOU are here, thanks for joining us!  

• You can listen to our initial interview with Elizabeth, Episode #48, After a Marriage Ends.
• After the recording, Elizabeth really wanted to make sure we referenced Psalm 139: 23-24 when it comes to challenging our motivations. She meant to share this during the recording but didn’t get to it.
