What do you do when you love God, want to do the right thing, and still don’t know whether to stay or leave your marriage? For many people, the question of divorce isn’t about giving up — it’s about discernment. It’s about wanting peace instead of panic, clarity instead of guilt, and confidence that God is walking with you in the decision, not waiting on the other side of it.
In this episode, Jenn explores how to approach the divorce decision with faith and intention — without rushing, self-abandonment, or fear-based pressure. Rather than focusing on external timelines or cultural expectations, she offers a different compass: measuring the emotional and spiritual climate of your life and listening for God’s guidance in patterns, not perfection. You’ll hear compassionate insight on:
Why January often brings clarity around marriage decisions
The beliefs that keep people stuck in limbo
How betrayal changes the discernment process
The difference between choosing from fear and choosing with God
How to move forward — whether you stay or leave — with integrity, peace, and faith
This episode isn’t about telling you what choice to make. It’s about helping you trust yourself, trust God, and choose on purpose. If you’re standing at a crossroads, you’re not behind — and you’re not alone.
