Living a life that reflects the values of God’s Word is often difficult at best and seemingly impossible at worst. We constantly negotiate between our personal belief system and the realities of life. The world in which we live and labor daily seems to offer more stumbling blocks than encouragement, and life’s unforeseen circumstances can ruin a perfectly good day … or a perfectly good life.

Loss of a job, an accident or health issue, a divorce, or death of a family member or friend: the list of possibilities is endless. It is at times like these that questions arise. Why did God allow this to happen to me? Can God really forgive me after all I’ve done? What is God’s will for my life? These are just a few of the questions we have all asked at one time or another, and they are among those author Rebecca Jacobson tackles in Monday Morning Living. Jacobson investigates those questions and provides practical advice for dealing with issues that come up in our daily life.

Monday Morning Living provides laughter, insight, and a nontraditional look at how to embrace your life journey, trials and all, and experience a new level of peace and comfort in difficult times.

It is no secret that many hearts have been shattered by infidelity. With affairs and sexual addiction at all time highs in our society, it is no wonder that those affected by the real-life trauma and agonizing pain of unfaithfulness search for ways to cope, forgive, and eventually heal. In her comprehensive, Christian self-help guidebook What Happens After Shattered?, licensed mental health counselor Dr. Deanna Sims shares gentle guidance that includes case examples, strategies for coping and healing, and over one hundred biblical passages. With the hope of encouraging and supporting those on a journey to healing after infidelity, Dr. Sims addresses many key issues including how to identify the different types of affairs; honor anger as a natural phase of grieving; navigate through the discovery and disclosure phases of an affair; understand narcissism and its correlation to infidelity; answer questions to determine whether to reconcile or terminate the marriage; implement an affair-prevention plan to safeguard your marriage; work toward a spirit of forgiveness.

 What Happens After Shattered? reinforces the important message that hope, personal growth, and healing are possible even after the life-altering experience of an affair.
