About the Book:
From This Day Forward
Christian Music agent Kellen Rossiter has everything he ever wanted: A-list clients from coast to coast, a loving wife who honors and respects him, and a faith life that’s never wavered—until now.
Juliet Rossiter has the perfect life: a rewarding schedule serving the underprivileged, a husband who loves her as Christ loved the church, and a blessed future as a mother—at least that's what she thinks.
For Better or Worse
But what happens when their rock-solid marriage begins to crumble under the weight of an unexpected and powerful temptation? How does love survive when its foundation is shaken?
'Til Death Do Us Part
When human frailty and the allure of sin deal a harsh blow to their relationship, it will take more than love to mend the shattered trust and heartbreak. It will take a lifetime of devotion.
My Thoughts:
“So much love trying
to burst its way through so much pain.”
(p.231)
Kellen and Juliet’s journey, sadly, isn’t so rare as you’d
like to think among Christian marriages.
Infidelity comes with a very high price, and the journey back to trust –
if two people are willing to work toward reconciling the marriage – is almost
more painful than the infidelity that caused the break in the marriage to begin
with.
Their story is what the journey should look like between two
committed Christians, and it is a beautifully painful story to read. I hope it brings healing to many.
Sadly, I’ll say no more.
My marriage ended after almost 23 years, and I was never offered a
chance to reconcile. That too, is a sad
reality. I will testify to this fact…God
is ever near the broken-hearted. He
binds up their wounds and draws them close to His heart. I rest close to the
heart of my Savior, and my prayer is that NO ONE will ever suffer the hurt of
infidelity ever again. It is, without a
doubt, one of the enemies most painful weapons.
I am so grateful Devotion
gives the reader hope that is seated on the promises of God. I am very grateful!!
