Less Than Faithful
Have you ever wanted to hear about another person’s road of recovery from betrayal trauma in hopes that you might apply some of the same learning to your own life?
This book is about the author’s discovery of her husband/pastor’s decades-long porn addiction and about the difficult journey toward healing in the aftermath. Although she wouldn’t have chosen this to be her marriage story, she is grateful for the lessons God has taught her through it. Her story is born out of the desire to help some one else traveling a similar road. It has been written with much prayer that the Lord might use it to provide the reader with helpful insights for recovery. May these insights lead to hope and deliverance for the your own marriage.
“We have escaped like a bird from the fowler’s snare; the snare has been broken and we have escaped. Our help is in the name of the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.” (Psalm 124:7-8)
