I haven’t heard divorce encouraged, trivialized, or permitted in any Evangelical church I’ve ever attended.

I keep hearing from the pulpit that divorce is sin and God hates divorce.

“I haven’t heard divorce encouraged, trivialized, or permitted in any Evangelical church I’ve ever attended.”

When I was Baptist the subject never came up at all. Now mind you this was in the 1980’s when divorce rates were already shooting up and many kids in my Sunday school class were products of divorce. I knew this because they came every other or every so many Sundays when the “other parent” had time with them.

A lot of what these churches, really any church should do is not only talk about the harm divorce does to children and society. More than this churches should stress the importance of the benefits of what marriage, a solid one man, one woman, marriage does for society and children.
