Free Stuff Fridays (The Good Book Company)

This week’s Free Stuff Friday is sponsored by The Good Book Company. Enter to win 1 of 10 copies of This Was Never the Plan: Walking with God through the Heartache of Divorce by Vaneetha Risner.

Divorce brings a storm of emotions—grief, anger, confusion and shame. Yet while the ache lingers, life goes on.

Vaneetha Risner has walked through this pain. In this hopeful and honest book, she draws from Scripture and her own story to offer compassionate wisdom on…

  • Finding emotional clarity and letting go of shame
  • Trusting God in the uncertainties ahead
  • Healing relationally, resisting bitterness and finding community
  • Nurturing hope for the future

She also shares about navigating single parenting, church, dating and the work of rebuilding.

Whether you are in the early stages of divorce or beginning to restore your life, this book points to Christ’s faithful presence every step of the way. Helpful check-ins throughout invite you to pause, reflect and take hold of God again and again.

Includes appendices to guide friends and church leaders in supporting you.

Enter to win one of ten available copies of This Was Never the Plan: Walking with God through the Heartache of Divorce.
