I have a support group on Facebook called Christians Surviving Marital Infidelity. I also have an email subscriber list for easing the pain of infidelity. Every day I receive messages from people all over the world who are brokenhearted and struggling with intense emotional pain. I immediately connect with each person because I have been there. I understand the pain that they are feeling. I want so much to take that pain away, to offer the most uplifting and comforting words that I can muster. I pray for each one, and I read uplifting Christian books in search of the gems that truly bring encouragement in the midst of the intense heartaches that we all face at some point in our lives.

I am a big fan of Max Lucado’s work, and I highly recommend his book You'll%20Get Through This: Hope and Help for Your Turbulent Times">You’ll Get Through This: Hope and Help for Your Turbulent Times. In true Lucado fashion, he writes in a tone that makes you feel as if you are having a conversation with a real friend. I am inspired to live my life with my eyes focused on godly principles, and I challenge you to join me. Using biblical truth, Lucado empowers the reader to depend on God and to not just endure, but to actually thrive in spite of the painful situations in which we find ourselves. You'll%20Get Through This: Hope and Help for Your Turbulent Times">This book is a wonderful respite from the materialistic culture that we live in, and the reader will find renewed hope to keep going, even in situations where it seems there is no light at the end of the tunnel.
