Written by a twice-divorced Latter-day Saint, this frank and often humorous guide walks readers through the emotional, spiritual, and practical realities of being LDS and divorced. From the early legal and financial decisions of separation, to healing the wounded self, to twenty-first-century dating (including the then-new world of online LDS singles), toxic relationship traps, forgiveness, and finally cultivating a celestial remarriage, Jennifer James offers scripture-laced advice, real (anonymized) stories, and hard-won encouragement for members rebuilding their lives after a broken marriage. The rare LDS book that speaks openly to the growing population of divorced Latter-day Saints who feel invisible at church Written by someone who lived it: twice divorced after a 20-year temple marriage Practical A-to-Z: from the stipulation agreement to sealing clearances to blending stepfamilies Blunt, funny, and unafraid to name the cultural stigma divorced members face Perfect for an active Latter-day Saint who is going through, or recovering from, a divorce and wants faith-centered guidance on healing, dating again, and possibly remarrying in the temple.
