George and Amanda,
Happy New Year! I got your very nice letter several weeks ago and the time since has flown! So, please accept my apology for not reaching out to both of you sooner.
Mr. Kenworthy,
I just want to tell you that I purchased your book last year in Sept/Oct. My husband and I separated in June of 2009. I did not think that there was any hope for us, because he told me he was never coming back home, after I kicked him out, for getting a loan for a female coworker of his that he claimed was a friend, but there were other issues as well on my part and his.
Dear George,
I was having dinner with a couple from the church where I did my internship in Florida this summer. The woman has served on my discernment committee. She was sharing with me the difficulties of watching her son struggle through a painful divorce and now the affects it is having on him and his son.
We were living the American dream and on the outside probably looked like the “perfect” couple. Our 401k’s were healthy. Good jobs. We purchased 50 acres of land with 1700 feet of private lake shore in April with the intentions of building a home and a possible pastor’s retreat on the island.
The day our daughter called to tell us her husband had been unfaithful was the darkest day of my life. Never have I been so blindsided by bad news as I was that day. The glorious Sunday morning became dark and sickening, as a dense fog of outrage, anger and despair over took us.
Good Morning Mr. Kenworthy,
I just wanted to send a note to thank you for your wonderful book "Before the Last Resort". I have been going to a marriage counselor for many months with no help, peace or encouragement to continue in my marriage.
My wife filed for divorce after 15 years of marriage and 6 children. It was difficult/ I leaned on God and followed the divorce proceedings but I wanted to believe that God could do something special!
Learning of my husband’s betrayal and affair with my best friend was the most heart wrenching news I have ever received. We had been married for two years when I learned of his infidelity.
