S4 EP47: Rachael's Story - 'You Must Stay Married At All Costs'
Description
Rachael Needham went through divorce a few years ago, however most of the trauma she experienced was in her toxic marriage. As a Christian woman, she wrestled with the thought of divorce and all that was subtly implied at the thought of divorce. Even though her parents, who were were both pastors, supported whatever decision she made, it was quite a few years before she eventually got ‘unmarried’ because of her religious surroundings.
Rachael has written a book to help others figure out if divorce is a healthy choice for them. That in itself was a whole other level of daring, as she was so afraid to be open about such a topic, when many branches of Christianity have views on divorce that say one thing: you stay married at all costs. Rachel does not agree with this message at all, and even finds it to be unbiblical, yet trapping so many, especially women, in unhealthy marriages.
This is such a great, honest, and eye opening episode. Thank you Rachael!
