When Divorce is Right

“My purpose in writing this book is to lay hold of God’s heart in every chapter, offering hope no matter how deep the pit. Corrie Ten Boom, a beautiful believer who endured the savagery of a Nazi concentration camp, put it this way: ‘There is no pit so deep that God’s love is not deeper still’.” So writes Dr. Bruce Sofia in his newest book, When Divorce is Right, as he shares God’s heart on this heartbreaking, and often misunderstood, controversial topic. For nearly 40 years Bruce Sofia has helped struggling couples find hope through broken dreams and crumbling marriages. With grace and grit, Dr. Sofia tackles such pivotal topics as biblical reasons for divorce, dating while in the midst of a divorce, responding to infidelity, the actual biblical command to divorce, and divorce in the ministry. Cutting through common controversies with uncommon sense, clarity, and a realistic exposition of the Scriptures, Dr. Sofia opens wide the very vulnerable heart of God, and leaves no doubt as to when divorce is right.
