People in the church will react differently to the news of your divorce, and may have different feelings toward you as a divorced person. But the key question is not what church people will think, but what does God think. God's intention for marriage does not include divorce. He wants men and women to live together in committed, loyal relationships.
Divorce is a reality because men and women break their commitments and betray their loyalties.
The Good News celebrated by Christians is that God restores wholeness to that which is broken. He does this by forgiving us. The church is the gathering place of people who, like you, have recognized their break down and have experienced God's love and acceptance in Jesus.
