Divorce Recovery
Navigate separation, divorce, and post-divorce rebuilding with truth, grace, wisdom, stability, boundaries, community, and hope in Christ.
Are you seeking Christ-centered stability, wisdom, healing, and hope after the pain of separation, divorce, or post-divorce rebuilding?Divorce Recovery is a public-facing Christian growth course taught by Rev. Henry Reyenga and Attorney/Pastor Brian DeCook, with Haley Steiner as the presenter, to help adults walk through divorce recovery with truth, grace, wisdom, and hope in Christ.
Course Purpose
The purpose of Divorce Recovery is to help students navigate layered loss, grief, identity, responsibility, boundaries, forgiveness, family transitions, community support, and whole-life rebuilding after separation or divorce.
Using a Christ-centered recovery framework, students learn to name loss honestly, recognize grief waves, stabilize urgent areas of life, rebuild identity in Christ, discern responsibility without collapsing into shame, and practice faithful boundaries.
The course also helps students distinguish forgiveness from reconciliation, trust, access, consequences, and safety.
