The Wife's Heart by Mike Genung

I'm on chapter 11. So far it has been really good and helpful with tangible action steps. So far, I have done everything the books states not to do. I'm glad that I see this now and realize I have a lot of work to do. I'm really enjoying my reading.

Hey everyone - we're working on getting the ebook version together now. Should have it ready in around 2 weeks, depending on when the designer gets it finished and uploaded to Amazon. You'll also be able to buy it from the BG website.

Hi Ladies, Mike has posted a video today of Michelle reading the letter she wrote to him that is in this book. He also talks about it. Here is the video. Also this would be a good thing for the men on here to listen to.

Is this book in ebook format?

Yes it is. Here is the link www.amazon.com/Wifes-Heart-Husbands-Addiction-Adultery-ebook/dp/B078TQK7ZX/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1522333246&sr=8-3&keywords=The+wife%27s+heart

Virgil, I think you are saying that wives (or betrayed spouses) need to look at their own sins as well. And while this is true, I think your timing and tact are off and you really miss the mark in acknowledging the PAIN and the PROCESS that spouses go through after they have been traumatized by the shock of their husbands deceit as well as the images that they see during discovery. Unfortunately, your posts often come off as cold and lack empathy for the spouses. It’s really as if you want to skip the whole pain process and go on to over-spiritualizing the experience, essentially that we would “get over it”. No one who is healed gets over it. We have to instead “go through it”, just as Jesus did. Jesus had feelings, too, intense feelings while he was at the Garden of Gethsemane. He did not hide them or over-spiritualize them. He was REAL about it and felt extreme pain. You don’t give spouses the time to GRIEVE what has been lost: PURITY and TRUST. We cannot move forward until we can begin to let go of the ideals of the past. This takes TIME and God’s healing power.

Mike’s book empathizes with the pain spouses encounter. He clearly supports spouses AND helps them/us to go deeper with God by seeing how many of us have put too much weight on our spouses as the #1 in our lives. He helps spouses to acknowledge the pain and to understand that clinging to God in various ways (scripture, music, fellowship) is healthiest for us and our marriages. He also helps us to see where we have been deficient in our walk with God and where we need to fortify our spiritual walls.

I really hope you can show more support towards the spouses who have been betrayed by understanding that God will reveal our own sins in the proper time. But first, He wants us to know that He LOVES us dearly and tenderly holds us in His comforting hands while we are wounded and grieving.
