Decision-Point - Divorce, Dance, or Dare (Paperback)

Decision-Point--Divorce, Dance or Dare is a straight-forward discussion of the life-changing and intergenerational impact of a divorce decision, and it offers a breakthrough approach to those who choose to renew the foundation of their marriage and reclaim the promise of spiritual and personal growth it was originally based on. Only when we have a truthful awareness of the consequences of divorce; when we have searched, found and embraced the teachings of scripture, as written and intended; when we have taken an active and constructive role in the development of our own well-being, are we prepared for the Decision-Point. If you are at the Decision-Point in your marriage, and if you are open to exploring new perspectives on the choices you face, this book is for you. Use this book to find new courage, create a new foundation for your marriage, and as a window to the experiences of others and to the expert resources that are there for you The journey begins with the three tenants of Decision-Point: - Truth: Understanding the personal and spiritual realities and consequences of a divorce action. - Faith: Having the faith to lean-in to God and into your marriage. - Self: Finding the courage to discover your strengths and the virtues that can lead you to a more meaningful marriage and state of well-being. 'Divorce' is a way for me to move-on with life. Right? In a practical and modern-day approach, the authors deliver a compelling argument to preserve marriage, and to recognize divorce as a toxic social 'right' that has delivered exponentially greater harm to more individuals, to more families, to the greater well-being of our society, than any disease of modern day. The politically expedient policy of 'No-Fault' divorce was never intended to mean 'No-Consequence'. Shall we just 'Dance'? Should we stay in a marriage where love has changed or no longer exists? Where destructive behaviors are prevalent or where hope for change has become emotionally and, perhaps even, physically exhausting? Is it fair to us, to our children, to our families, to our loved ones, to our value and belief systems, to the well-being of our future, to allow the results of our Decision-Point to be one of simple acceptance? Or, shall we 'Dare'? Should we embrace a construct of change in our lives that helps us to lean-in to the challenges of our marriage and focus on our spiritual centering and on developing the conditions for our own well-being to prosper, as the first-steps to a flourishing self and, by extension, a high-quality, self-sustaining marital union? In the authors view, the Decision-Point is fundamentally marked by a simple choice of: 'Dare' to seek spiritual and personal growth in your marriage, or NOT Dare not to save your marriage - Dare to take it to a place where it will flourish
