If you haven't already, one day you will encounter something that is so unexpected, so shocking, and so life-changing that it takes your breath away.

In this book, you will get insight and inspiration about *Porn addiction and how the spouse is often kept in the dark *Why bad things happen to good people *Dealing with the stages of grief while trying to move forward *How to help when someone you love goes through a crisis situation *Why a good Christian woman would seek a divorce *How to find love and handle a relationship the second time around *How to H.O.P.E. (have only positive expectations) even in the worst situation "This story needs to be told to a very broad audience, but especially to leaders of any kind, because it addresses some of the issues that many pastors face but not many are willing to talk about. The painful parts, mixed with the joyful parts, mixed with the hard to understand parts of life, and questions that don't all get answered in this lifetime. Gloria bravely addresses these issues in her own life with her signature joyful, positive attitude and a refreshing vulnerability."--Pastors Dan and Emily Klotz, Resurrection Life Church, Cadillac, MI "I highly recommend that you read this book and follow the life struggles of a woman whose whole world collapses! Her story will encourage you in your travels through life and 'stuff' you will face! A book well worth the reading!" -Dr. James A.
