Editorial Reviews
Product Description
As the divorce rate among Latter-day Saints continues to grow, couples who are struggling must face difficult questions: Do we make things work, or do we move on? In Latter-day Divorce and Beyond, practicing therapist Jennifer James offers direction, guidance, and comfort through the agonizing process of moving on. She gives advice on everything from the twenty-first century dating game to the challenge of forgiveness. Having gone through a divorce of her own twenty years after being married in the temple, Jennifer provides an understanding perspective on what it means to be divorced and LDS. Through it all, she encourages readers to stay active in the Church.
About the Author
Born in Detroit and raised in San Francisco, Jennifer is an only child, a convert to the LDS Church at age seventeen, and considers the gospel to be one of the saving graces in her life. Twice divorced and the mother of three beautiful daughters, Jennifer has been single nearly four years, after her 20-year temple marriage ended in divorce. At twenty-one, she earned her bachelors degree in broadcast journalism from BYU. Her first love since childhood was music and within three weeks of graduation from university had joined the world-renown singing group The Mike Curb Congregation and traveled for nearly three years with them as an opening act for Sammy Davis Jr., Johnny Mathis, Carol Channing, Bob Hope, and others. This detour in life exposed her to recording contracts with Warner-Curb, MGM, and Word Records and was posed to cut her first single when she married the first time. Jennifer has performed for many celebrities and government officials, including President Ronald Reagan. Her pastimes include having great fun and adventures with her children whom she considers her greatest treasure, playing piano and guitar (self-taught), singing, dancing, rock and Irish folk music, mediaeval and ancient history research, genealogy, crochet, racquetball, volleyball, and watching rugby (she supports the Irish team at Lansdowne in Dublin). She also has a great love of animals in all shapes and sizes. With a passionate and intense personality, Jennifer is considered unconventional by her peers, as well as an incurable anglophile who loves the ocean, forests, riding horseback, dirt bikes, watching Jackie Chan movies, Bugs Bunny cartoons, Seinfeld, and Monty Python. She loves to laugh, is a self-described "handful," and hates being considered or having to act as an "adult." She's actively participated as a leader in Girl Scouting for many years. Jennifer’s professional aspiration is to help other divorcees, single parents, blended families and others emotionally heal and find their way so that they can create healthy relationships out of the ashes and chaos of former dysfunctional marriages. As a budding researcher and therapist, Jennifer teaches relationship seminars based on her best-selling book and graduated with her Master’s degree in Social Work in April 2005. Privately, Jennifer continues to seek for her soul-mate and is preparing for that eventual union.
