Porn Addiction, and How Our Marriage Survived: Bob and Dannah Gresh

Fri, 15 Sep 2023 09:15:00 +0000

In the wake of porn addiction, where you do turn? How do you rebuild trust after such intimate, searing betrayal? Authors Bob and Dannah Gresh share the pervasive realities of their own heartache—and their own rocky path toward healing.

Scripture warns us not to trust in other people. We’re only supposed to trust in the Name of the Lord our God. That’s who we trust. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him.” What this is saying is that I can trust God with what’s happening in my marriage, even when I can’t trust Bob. So, I’m going to put all my trust in God. — Dannah Gresh

Addiction–and Our Marriage’s Happily Even After: Bob and Dannah Gresh

Thu, 14 Sep 2023 09:15:00 +0000

Bob and Dannah Gresh’s marriage has traveled dark roads of addiction. But they decided to participate in God’s redemption story. Together, they discovered something better than romance: a love that endures, and happily even after.
It’s so much easier to pretend everything is okay and to just keep going through the motions. That’s not okay. What that is, is us avoiding pain. Pain is not a problem. It is a gift from God. When you feel the pain, that’s God’s friendly messenger saying, “There’s something that together we can fix if you’re willing to be brave enough and feel the pain.” –Dannah Gresh
