About this item

¿Y entonces?

El matrimonio está destinado a proteger una vida de amor. La permanencia de una relación entre marido y mujer se basa en un pacto de compromiso mutuo que está diseñado para sobrevivir a los conflictos matrimoniales normales e incluso graves. Sin embargo, a veces, el abuso verbal y físico hace en un matrimonio lo que el asesinato o la violación hace en una vida. ¿Y ahora qué? ¿Qué pasa si los esfuerzos por salvar un matrimonio resultan en la pérdida acumulada de paz y confianza en el hogar? Este folleto nos mostrará que Moisés, Jesús y Pablo reconocieron que algunas condiciones matrimoniales son peores que el divorcio.

What then?

Marriage is meant to protect a lifetime of love. The permanence of a husband-wife relationship rests on a covenant of mutual commitment that is designed to survive normal and even serious marital conflict. Sometimes, however, verbal and physical abuse do to a marriage what murder or rape does to a life. What then? What if the efforts to save a marriage result in the compounded loss of peace and trust in the home? This booklet will show us that Moses, Jesus, and Paul all recognized that some marital conditions are worse than divorce.
