Shared this with a dear friend who’s husband cheated on her. They mutually decided to work on the marriage. I think she deserves a trophy and I am so proud of her. This will be a great resource for them! Thank you!
I Really Do Appreciate the Braveco Podcasts! It is Wonderful to See How God Restores Relationships/Marriages when we Are Willing To Repent and Put Our Trust in Him; Be Transparent and Obedient to Him! Thanks a Million!
I really enjoyed this conversation! Carl & Laura, you should be so proud of all the work you’ve put in to get to where you are today. You don’t have to share anything with anyone, but I so greatly appreciate that you are. It’s making a real difference. You both have changed the way I live in certain areas of my life. You’ve blessed me with an awakening or two..or three..☺️ Thank you.
I think that divorce and staying together after cheating has occurred in a marriage are both really hard, just in different ways. My mom has stayed with my dad for 37 years even though he has cheated on her multiple times. It’s definitely hard to forgive a partner who has cheated, but if she left it would have also been hard for her financially since my dad is the one who has mostly been the one to bring in an income throughout their marriage. Leaving would have been hard and uncomfortable in that aspect, and starting again as a single person after being married is daunting too. I pray more people, especially followers of Christ, would turn to Him before they sink into the temptation of being unfaithful.
Calling Carl Lentz a Con Artist for 18 years? Even this guys facial expressions got exaggerated when he said it. The Character of Christ isn’t condemnation. That left a really bad taste in my mouth. If Carl is a con artist then we all are. None are above sin. Yes, Props to Laura for choosing her family but I guarantee you she wants her Husband celebrated for not letting the Enemy win his story. Im tired of seeing this narrative. Most people that choose to belittle this guy haven’t even come close to the influence Carl lentz has had. I couldn’t imagine the spiritual warfare he has been through. God used this guy to help change many eternal addresses. Dishonoring another man in front of his wife or on a platform such as TH-cam is pretty low. That’s the opposite of what I would say is spiritual masculinity. I watched this yesterday, I couldn’t even sleep thinking about it. His kids probably will see this. He had moments of weakness. It doesn’t mean he was manipulating his wife and kids. I hope that part gets edited out and an apology is given. I can say Carl handled it better than I could off. Bible tells us if we even look on a woman in lust it’s just the same as being with her. I guess this guy is perfect in that area. I think someone close to this guy needs to check him. If masturbating during puberty is how he wants to relate to Carl lentz’s situation then this guy is oblivious to where shame and trauma will take you. I’ve never left a comment on TH-cam but for a man to claim spiritual masculinity and put his Brother in Christ down in front of his wife, I pray this guy wakes up to his arrogance before God humbles him. No Being on this earth is perfect.
Im so happy to have seen this n to know the Lentz's have been able to work thru this.... You can see the transformation on Carl's face which is a great thing...to God be all the glory
Would you say porn is a justifiable reason for divorce in a case where the man is honest with his wife and actively struggling against it but still occasionally backslides?
I can’t believe that this is even a real question…it speaks volumes from a person who has been indoctrinated by Christianity, I can’t get past the Christianese language you are using…
If your husband is willing to get healthy and healed, then it's worth staying. If he refuses to change and doesn't take accountability and it's something you can't handle then you need to be honest with yourself and your husband.
What would you do , Laura , if after ALL that devastation , ALL the repentance , ALL the 500% pouring of yourself into rebuilding , and ALL the BEAUTIFULS God restored to the two of you ... what IF , he threw you and all that away and chose to return to his old pig pen ? Could you do this all over again ??
I get that porn is used as a stress reliever and that early exposure can make it more difficult to break the habit. And I get that being molested can create some sexual trauma. BUT…. With that being said… I am SO SICK of hearing men drop this thing about early childhood trauma as playing into why they cheated on their wives… like what “kind of trauma” from childhood forced you to betray the woman who loves you? Is it called “selfishness,” or “evil,” or “licentiousness,” or “greed?” Bc those are the sins that cause one to be unfaithful… Trauma is a victim word. You are explaining your infidelity away by making yourself a victim of some past hurt when you use this language. It’s absolute bull… I’m sorry, I don’t care if you were hurt in some capacity when you were younger- so was LITERALLY every single person on the face of the Earth. Can we not? Drop the drama. Stick to the accountability for your actions (which there was a lot of, and it was healing to hear it. I appreciated it.)
I was molested by a cousin and have been married for 12 years and just found out my own husband has betrayed me. It’s been sooo hard knowing it’s caused by childhood trauma and he did that to me and yet I have stayed faithful. It’s hard!
@ stayed in it for 8 months, while knowing it was going on. Just trying to recover all the damage it did to my brain. I have PTSD now and see a betrayal trauma specialist weekly.

Still a narcissist and his wife is still falling for his BS.

How long since you've been betrayed?
So sorry you went through this! Stay strong.🙏

You completely lost me when you used the word sin…
