My guest today shares a story that is all too common for so many women.  It’s the story of discovering her husband’s marital betrayal.  This is part one of our conversation.  We talk about what does a woman do when she is in the early stages of her journey.  We talk about how God sustains women.  And what about the woman who decides to stay? If you or someone you know has walked through marital betrayal, would you be willing to share this episode with them?  I think Stephanie’s words will be a source of strength, comfort, and encouragement.

We Discuss:
-Stephanie’s own story of walking through heartbreak and betrayal
-Advice for women in the early stages of their journey
-How God sustains us in our darkest days
-Encouragement for those who make the choice to stay
-How to deal with outside opinions
