    The church has torn my husband and I apart

    I'm sure people are wondering why I married him in the first place, but I didn't know all these things about his past before, he kept it very private and led me to believe we had similar upbringings. Before we got married he told me we would attend nondenominational churches (we were members of...

His mother was a Catholic but his dad said that if he was going to attend church and get clean that it would be the church he chooses. His mother has told me that the reason her and...

    The church has torn my husband and I apart

    He tells me that going to a nondenominational church is not a good compromise, I see it as the best way for us to both get what we need. My husband is desperate for his father's affection and I see only thing he praises my husband for is going to the church he found.

    The church has torn my husband and I apart

    Thank you so much for the prayers. We had decided to go to a nondenominational church when we were dating as engaged. We even became members at a church, but then we moved ( due to his work) and we are now closer to his family and his childhood church. I'm not sure if the change happened...

    The church has torn my husband and I apart

    I left the denomination of the church out because I didn't want to offend anyone who was that denomination. I don't want to cast any judgements on this denomination I was just raised and believe different things. I was raised Lutheran but I've always been open to attend other denominations...

    The church has torn my husband and I apart

    My husband and I have recently started going back to his childhood church. After we got married my husband told me that we would try a couple different churches to find the right fit for us, after attending 2 different churches he decided he wanted to attend his old church, I told him I wasn't...
