Consider what we know about divorce in the United States:
> In 1998 2.2 million couples married and 1.1 million divorced.
> In 2000, 58 million couples were married yet separated and another 21 million couples were divorced.
> People between the ages of 25 to 39 account for 60% of all divorces.
> Over 1 million children are affected by divorce each year.
> More people are in their 2nd marriage than 1st. (www. dicorcenter.com)
With divorce being so common today, nearly half of all marriages end in divorce, is there any hope?
> A greater number of divorces occur within the Christian church than marriages outside the church. (George Barna)
Divorce is a real problem that cannot be ignored.
