My marriage fell apart thru infidelity and caused endless grief, I see it so much in the Christian circles now. I don’t believe Il ever be married again. It’s too hard to find a man who doesn’t struggle with lust or infidelity. Yes I’m talking about born again believers. .... I won’t or can’t compete with that lust or be replaced by another again. It’s the worst rejection ever. Thankyou Lisa for your story❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
So good thank you Lysa! I went thru a similar experience with my husband in April 2016 but God totally redeemed it and I am now remarried to a wonderful Christian man. My life is SO MUCH BETTER and I am so grateful to God! He knew my husband was lying and cheating and he "delivered" me from that marriage.
My husband told me he was thinking about divorcing me a week before we found out I had cancer. That was a month ago. I'm still hoping and praying but am trying to learn to lean on God. I can't wait to listen to this book!
Lysa, I would like for you to know that your ministry has literally saved my life. Going through the toughest long-term problems in my life, I felt like there was nothing left for me to live for. I thought the worst, that I should take my life. Then I found First 5. I started studying God's Word with all of my might. (His might). My life has not gotten better, but my Outlook through knowing how much the Lord is there for me, has helped me to make it through. Thank you from your biggest 💓🙏 fan. Christine Orbaczewski
Great interview... thank you for sharing. It made me think when we draw a line in the sand, God gently brushes it out and draws it a little further ahead. I'm 2 years in (1 year separation and 1 year divorce) and although I was saved 34 years ago I am only now beginning to learn to truly live by faith... Oh I praise Him for His patience and love!
I am your story. Please encourage your husband to share his journey. I pray for my husband that he will be able to recover from addictions that can not exist in a marriage. I
I’m so afraid because I AM RIGHT THERE. He’s “trying” but I don’t see a new heart. Only defensiveness. And “get over this, your suppose to forgive and move on. It’s over!”
What a classy woman and true follower of God. God bless you Lysa!!! I pray many blessings on your marriage that went through the fire. We are all broken and in need of a Savior! That is the whole point. No marriage is perfect. But God IS!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing your story! I went through a similar situation with my husband several years ago. The situation brought me to my knees, but it taught me to put it all in God's hands. God blessed me by healing my heart and my husband's heart and healed our marriage. What a blessing you are, everything you said, I felt as well. Bless you and your family!
She is an amazing person. Her pain and her journey is healing for me. He used this for me and I know, so many others. This just popped up on my feed. Love the God things.😊❤️
Maggie, your sweet heart was so precious throughout this interview. What a blessing you are! Lysa, I truly feel the impact of what it is like to be in the public eye as I listen to you. Going through something like this is unspeakably hard. Having to endure it in the public eye multiplies that challenge. I am grateful for the grace and transparency you share here.
This was an amazing interview. Maggie was excellent and I so appreciated the years of weathered beauty that Lisa brought to the forefront of all of this. So many journeys crisscross this way. May we all nod to each other along the road and cross the final line together with our loving God.
Really helpful to hear everything that Lisa is talking about for me. I have 2 prodigals adult children that walked away from God, it broken me and made me feel so lost. I have to remember it's okay to be broken before the Lord and only he can help me and my son Jesse and daughter Julianna. I'm waiting for my healing during this time of change.
Trading my will for God's will in the midst of pain is such a good lesson to learn. Emotions can run so high, but trying to learn to stay in step with His Spirit. I love the reality that even if everything falls apart, I can be assured I still have Jesus,so I will never lose everything.
Thank you so much for the immediate candid differentiation of the difference between "secrecy" and "privacy". I've always been very candid and transparent with my followers as well. However, the last two years has taken a toll and I've needed to be quiet, to be still with God in order to heal. I'm ready to begin slowly opening up again about my journey and moving forward in the Faith, Hope, and Love of our Lord Jesus Christ!
God gave me this yesterday when I was asked what is the difference between happy and joy. Happiness can be taken away, joy is relinquished. We share same emotions with a different story and It is my prayer for that one day I can say "It is well with my soul". Dont know if I can say "Thank you" to God, but so desperately wanna say and proclaim with all of me IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL. Iron sharpens iron. Keep on keeping on. Thank you for sharing.
That was seriously the most amazing 59 minutes and 42 seconds! What a strong and beautiful woman of God! I am not going through Lysa's particular struggle but some of her words will resonate with anyone going through a dark season of any kind. Thank you Lysa for this! God bless you heart, your life, your family, and your marriage! 💜
Amazing testimony! Lisa, thank you for being so honest and transparent about your pain and the reality that it is NOT easy even after you reconciled. There are still triggers to overcome.
This message speaks to my heart. I'm dealing with some disappointment and confusion with God and circumstances. Thank you for sharing this video. I believe God directed me here tonight. I guess He is good... all the time !
Thank you, Lysa for being so real. This helps me to deal with my own husband's addiction and infidelities. God bless you and Art as you begin your (new) journey together.
There is so much in this that is touching deep within me that needs healing. This is something I will watch over and over. Thank you Lysa, thank you Lord for this!
Praise God for your testimony about Art. That fits more of my story... I thank God He has redeemed me and given me victory over sin. To live the Christian life without guilt and shame, oh my goodness, is so refreshing!
I was believing with my husband for his healing and I thought the good God could bring about through Tim's illness was the testimony of his healing. Instead, the good has been how God has comforted me through this time of separation from Tim
This is SOOOO refreshing, this could be my story, ny ex husband had numerous affairs but was finally caught and knew I had to get out, my ex had NO RESPECT FOR ME OR MY FAMILY, he just thought of himself and all the women he could get, nothing else mattered to him, I prayed and prayed for a good outcome but God guided me through it and now see that God was looking out for me and DIDN'T want me to go back into that marriage, it was HARD whole life changed and wasn't easy but now live IN PEACE, I know God loves me and ALWAYS with me, now have Grandkids whom have bought sooo much JOY to my life, my ex husband is now 66 and still running around after women, THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO.
Lysa first and foremost I love you so much...and m so thankful to GOD...so very thankful to HIM for uh....Ma'am you are a blessing in my life....God BLESS uh so much....!! God is a good God really He is amazing...!!
I praise God for allowing you to share your story. It is really helping through this rough patch. Thank you for being raw and real. It is very much needed.
Thank you Lysa for your vulnerability and you obedience to the Lord to bring hope through action of standing for marriage and also publicly sharing you and your husband’s testimony. I’m standing for my marriage too, but in prayer and releasing my husband to the only One who can capture his heart and take captive his mind and renew, redeem, restore, and reconcile what has happened. I want our marriage resurrected with all of my heart, however I recognize after many painful months of trying to fix things my way that it would not be healthy to bring home a man who is not repentant or in relationship with the Lord. Praying for marriages. I also have major health problems and have 20 doctors I see while being left as a single mom to two. But God knew all of this before and I trust in Him, not what I see before me. Amen!
Beautiful testimony. Many similarities to my own situation. My story had a different ending but yes God is good to us all. May the Lord continue to pour out His Grace in your life and mine. Thank you for sharing.
19:34 So true. Easier to talk about healing from our past than dealing with the present. God's timing. Thank you for sharing your story in a Biblical way. Great interview as well! Thank you.
Oh! I love you Lysa, and I thank GOD for you!!! I wish I could give you a big hug right now!!! You are a strong woman ma'am, and the fiercest battles come to the heavyweights. Through GOD you overcame and achieved superhero status! You are a superhero of the Christian faith: right there in the extended list of Hebrews 11. I love you Ma'am, and may FATHER GOD bless, keep, and preserve you and your entire family, in JESUS NAME!! Love You Ma!!!!
Much love to you Mrs. Lisa! You're a strong woman of God! Thanks for sharing your journey and testimony to the world to continue to impact the christian community and marriages !
It is difficult to release some things... more to the point, it's more difficult not to pick them up again. That is my problem. I give it to God, then turn around and pick it back up... Thank you for the "9 words".
In a category where people are set apart. She is truly set apart for God's perfect purpose to show his infinite loving character. This is no ordinary woman. I'm sorry but there are way too many women out there. But Lisa is truly a lady. I am so glad to hear thank God showed her so much Mercy in her life and showed her husband a lot of Mercy as well. It's may go against public opinion. But God took what was meant for evil and turned it around for good. This to me and this is again my opinion but a story of true forgiveness and true restoration that only comes through our God and our Savior Jesus Christ. I praise you father for restoring her marriage and bringing back honor to her husband. I know without a shadow of doubt Heavenly Father that you are going to use this marriage to crush the enemy.
Christian men really arnt that much different than worldly men, they are few and far between. If you have a true God fearing man who CHOOSES to not entertain impure thoughts, your lucky. It ALL boils down to CHOICE.
So so so relate.. will definitely be reading your book. My first husband cheated on me for 3 years. The 3 years I fought to save that marriage were more painful than anything I thought I could endure. My now second husband left me recently about 2 months ago after 3 other times each a year apart stating that he wasn't happy and wanted to leave. This year he actually left. He is now back home. I am good wife and I really try. My faith is my whole existence these days. I rely on God to help me love this man. I struggle quietly soo much.. Thank you for being transparent and willing to share your story.
I Thank You, personally for your testimony, sharing of the problems you have gone through in the many Seasons of your life. I followed your EStudie you had on line, and allowing me to see that other people are going through, the day to day life's disappointments has been such an uplifting Hope. I pray God's blessings over your life, your family, and your ministry, and I thank you for allowing me to just let it go, and give it to God 🙌 💖

I cannot express how much I love and appreciate this lady's transparency, honesty and openness. Tingles and tears!
So good thank you Lysa! I went thru a similar experience with my husband in April 2016 but God totally redeemed it and I am now remarried to a wonderful Christian man. My life is SO MUCH BETTER and I am so grateful to God! He knew my husband was lying and cheating and he "delivered" me from that marriage.
"If lesser loves ever satisfied us in that deep, perfect way we would have no desire for God."
That is a great statement...
My husband told me he was thinking about divorcing me a week before we found out I had cancer. That was a month ago. I'm still hoping and praying but am trying to learn to lean on God. I can't wait to listen to this book!
[God] “doesn’t want to be explained away, he simply wants to be invited in.” Beautiful truth!
