Infidelity: it’s not something we ever thought would be part of our story, but it happened to us. And we healed. Now God is allowing us to bring hope and help to those who are walking a similar journey.

If you’re here because the bottom has just dropped out of your marriage, we want you to know you’re not alone. We know things feel very scary right now and maybe even hopeless.

We want you to know there is hope and we want to help you find it. In fact, you may need to borrow our hope for a season. That’s okay!

You probably are having trouble thinking straight. With that in mind, here are some practical next steps you can take.

First:

Read our FREE 10 Day No More Perfect Marriages Blog Series. You can request it in an easy-to-read PDF format here. If you’re both willing to read it, that will be valuable. If you’re the only one willing to read it, it’s still valuable.

Second:

If you’re the one who’s been betrayed, Jill has a little book we highly recommend you get. It’s called Your Next Steps: What To Do When Your Spouse Is Unfaithful. After we began to share our story publicly, we could hardly keep up with the emails coming in. This little booklet is a compilation of what Jill would email over and over again.

If you’re the one who was unfaithful, we highly recommend How To Help Your Spouse Heal From Your Affair. We didn’t write it but it’s the book Mark would have written if we hadn’t found this first!

We also recommend you get our free e-book Roadmap for Rebuilding Trust In A Marriage.

Third:
