MY ANSWER

Since committing my life to Christ, I no longer like to do the things my husband does (like spend time in bars and casinos), and we're just drifting apart. Should I leave him?

MY ANSWER

I thought I had gotten off of drugs, and I did for a while (after I got married). But then the marriage went bad and now I'm back in the same rut. I know it's destroying me but I can't do anything about it. I've been through rehab twice but it didn't stick. Please pray for me.

MY ANSWER

Three months after my divorce, I rushed into another marriage because I was so lonely, but it was a big mistake. Please warn people to be very careful before they remarry. I wish I had.

My wife is totally disabled because of a massive stroke, and probably won't ever get better. Now some of my friends are telling me I'm crazy not to find a mistress. How can I explain to them that God wants me to be faithful to her as long as she lives, without sounding like I'm strange?

MY ANSWER

My ex-husband's unfaithfulness hurt me very much and the pain is still very real. My aunt tells I need to forgive and forget - but how can I, even as a Christian. Is it really possible?
A question about recovering from an unfaithful spouse

MY ANSWER

My husband seems to be having a midlife crisis, and I'm so confused I don't know what to do. He's taken up with a woman almost half his age, and now he's announced he's leaving us and intends to marry her. What does God want me to do?
What your husband is doing is wrong, not just in the eyes of other people, but also in God's eyes.

MY ANSWER

We went through some rough times in our marriage, and finally I just walked away from it. I thought divorce would be the easy way out, but believe me, it wasn't. It's really been hard - emotionally, financially, you name it. I guess God knew what He was doing when He told people to stay married. I wish I had, but now it's too late.
Admittedly every marriage has its problems, but it's far better to face them and work through them than to end up in divorce court.
