Product Description

Divorce is a time of loss—it also becomes a time of change with the possibility that each partner might move forward toward personal restoration and wholeness. But how? David and Lisa Frisbie, authors of Happily Remarried, share godly wisdom, sound advice, and encouragement to help readers:

• heal from feelings of anger and abandonment
• discover the sufficiency of God
• develop interests, dreams, and skills
• raise healthy kids alone or as a co–parent
• manage money (or the lack of it)

This excellent resource provides great help for those with children and will guide any divorced reader to see the hope of a second chance as they learn to depend on God’s grace, sufficiency, and promises.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Parenting Tips!, March 25, 2007

By	Barbara Sheldon, M.S.W. (Solana Beach, CA) - See all my reviews

As a divorced mom, single parent, mother of two --- I read a lot. This new book has already changed the way I'm parenting my boys --- who are just now emerging into their teen years. Great parenting tips! This is one of the most positive, encouraging, "real life" books I've discovered. Extremely useful for anyone who is in their first 3-5 years after a divorce. Very well done!

5.0 out of 5 stars Moving forward After Divorce, January 6, 2009

By	Claudia Broome "Claudia Broome SAHM" (Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews

I thought that this book was extremely helpful. There were tips and encouraging words that could only be helpful to people who lived through a divorce and were having a tough time dealing with the aftermath. My wish would be that BOTH parents would read this book. It would only help the ex-couple and their children. Good Job!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Divorce Book I've Seen Anywhere, June 15, 2008

By	Lauren Hodge "Lauren in Apple Valley" (Apple Valley, California) - See all my reviews

I found this book while attending a divorce-recovery group at church. The authors spoke at a seminar at our church; I wasn't able to attend but my friends said it was excellent and extremely interesting.

Our group used this book as the "study book" for our group times, and what's fun is that everyone actually DID THEIR READING. I've been in a lot of groups where people kind of skim over things and skip sections, but this book reads easily and keeps you paying attention. Fun, funny, and also very real. It is obvious that these authors understand what we're going through.

I am now remarried but I still turn to this book sometimes, especially the section about parenting. This book's chapter on parenting is the best advice I've seen anywhere about how to raise your kids --- and it's hidden away here in a divorce book!! I was surprised but glad to find it.

GREAT divorce book; best one I've read (I've read 10 or 12 titles.)
