Chose Christ Over My Marriage

Divorce can indeed be a devastating thing and I speak from experience. There are others here with their own horror story. This is, as you say, a community of Brothers and Sisters in Christ and glad to have you onboard with us. Welcome to CC.

While my marriage wasn't going well anyway, when I decided to return to Church and really commit my life to Christ, it was the worst thing in the world to my spouse. After months and months of prayer and trying to reach her, she still has as hard of a heart as ever, maybe even more. We agreed on getting a divorce just yesterday. The funny thing is that all of the things she didn't like about me, Christ had changed, but she said it was too late. I am sure God has put conviction on her and she is ignoring it. I kept my faith, and have to remain faithful that God has a plan for all this.

Outside of that...I started reading Apologists books and got answers to questions I had about Christianity that no one had ever been able to answer for me. The approach of logic and science as well as forensic investigative tactics leads to a very obvious conclusion of God, and now I have been practicing apologetics when I go soul winning. Christ changed me so much, stopped drinking, smoking, desire for worldly things and pursuing "happiness", and have become a much less selfish and compassionate person, in a very short time. Nice to meet you all...divorce is a devastating thing so it is good to have a community of Brothers and Sisters in Christ to turn to outside of my local Church

"The Late Great Planet Earth" is a set of notes that brings important, first things together and gives the scripture references so you can look them up in the Bible version of your choice. I was not a Christian when someone loaned me the book and though it was not perfect, it started me down the road to Belief.

I'm well-acquainted with your pain as I stuck with an atheist two years after she de-converted.

Have you read "Evidence that Demands a Verdict", The Case for Christ series or CS Lewis writings? I'm sorry to hear about your marriage, but God can change a heart. Hold on, He's working everything for your good.

I am sorry to hear that. As hard as it is for us, we have to just have Faith and know that God has a plan for us and the outcome of things will be what is best! While I say and believe that, the pain is also a process you have to go through and it is rough.

Mere Christianity was my first introduction to it, and it was great! Read Case for Christ, and I haven't read that one of McDowell's books though I read his son's book Chasing Love. The one that REALLY got me over was Stealing From God by Frank Turek and then Cold Case Christianity by J. Warner Wallace. I have a handful of others too. Watched Kent Hovind's creation seminar series and that blew my mind too.

Ironically, I'm in the position of your wife, hard hearted with issues, I have struggled with my faith to the point of seeing more evidence suggesting God does not exist, what dark times thses are.. The word divorce has been thrown around.

Thank you for the welcome and puppy!
