I often hear people mention how it seems there are a lot of divorces in their church, community, and families. When you think about it there probably are. Depending on what group you are looking at and how the group is being measured, a divorce rate in the ball park of 50% is not uncommon. If half the people in a church or in a family got cancer, had a heart attack, or were killed, it would seem overwhelming and you would try to do anything in your power to prevent it. Even though divorce is not quite as dramatic as people dying it is still very devastating. My hope is to be involved one marriage at a time in turning the tide.
