E:105: I Built My Marriage Wrong From the Start. God Showed Me Why.

from Beyond Believing: Helping Christian Women Heal Post Divorce · host beyondbelieving

I had the intact home. The husband. Five kids. On paper, nothing was wrong. Everyone on the outside thought we had the ideal home. This week, I'm telling you what was actually happening underneath it — and about a woman in Scripture whose story I read years before my own marriage and never understood until it was already too late to have it going in. In this episode, we go back to Genesis 24 — the marriage the Bible describes in more detail than almost any other — and I show you exactly who Rebekah was, what the servant was actually testing for at the well, and why her answer to her family's question ("will you go?") mattered as much as anything else in the story. Then I connect it to my own foundation: growing up in a home shaped by my parents' divorce, the vow I made to give my own kids something different, and how I ended up building the exact thing I swore I'd never repeat — not because I didn't love my family, but because I didn't yet have the character Rebekah already had, long before anyone was testing her for it. If you're a divorced Christian woman rebuilding a home, a faith, or an identity from the ground up — this episode is for you. 📖 Scriptures referenced: Genesis 24:2–9, 12–14, 57–58 | Genesis 18:19 | Genesis 12:1–9 | Proverbs 30:21–23 | James 1:27 📅 Apply for coaching (Rooted Clarity Call) 🌱 Start with the free 7-day devotional: ROOTS 💛 Join The Selah Community  Ready to build a foundation like Rebekah's?
