February 6, 2026

Welcome to Season 3 of the Divorced Christian Woman Podcast! This season we’re getting all up in your business (literally): the money business.

If you’ve been told that staying married “for the kids” is the most loving choice you can make, this episode will challenge everything you thought you knew about protecting your children.

Research shows that staying in a high-conflict, abusive marriage can be up to 10 times more damaging to children than divorce. And when abuse is wrapped in religious language, the harm multiplies. Your kids aren’t just losing safety, they’re losing their ability to experience God as loving and trustworthy.
