That's why Steve Grissom founded DivorceCare and has now partnered with Kathy Leonard to write this book. This 365-day devotional offers help and healing, focusing on thirteen core issues. Dozens of today's most-respected and well-know Christian leaders and psychologists--including Kay Arthur, Dr. Tim Clinton, Dr. David Seamonds, Dr. H.

Complete with insight and personal testimonies from those who have found healing in the midst of their pain, this book is an encouraging gift for anyone struggling with divorce, no matter what stage they may currently be going through.
There is joy, strength, and healing available to you in the midst of separation or divorce.
Things may look bleak right now. Your world is a mix of shock, anger, hurt, and hopelessness.

This book is 5 star all the way! I've been through recovery classes and I've got to say, this helped me and enlightened me more. It's laid out like a daily devotional, but I read it like a book. I couldn't put it down! The author's tell it like it is and definitely know what they're talking about! I would give this book to everyone I know who is either going through divorce now or has just finalized a divorce. Even if you've been divorced a year or two , you need this book! I always mention this book to people I know who are struggling with the pain and emotions of divorce. A+A+A+!!!!
