Divorce is Not the End of the Story // Brandi Wilson

Some seasons of life seem more difficult than one human should have to bear. For Brandi Wilson that season was 2016, the year her husband – a megachurch pastor – walked away from the church and their family. As her 20-year marriage dissolved, Brandi also lost her church community, her dreams for the future, and a huge part of her identity. She and her three boys began a new journey marked by deep grief and suffering – but also hope, freedom, boldness, and peace. Today Brandi thanks God for the redemptive healing in her life and reassures other newly single women that they are not alone. Divorce is not the end of the story. This podcast will bring hope to all single moms even if divorce is not a part of your story. 


Brandi Wilson’s new book, Better Than Okay: Finding Hope and Healing
After Your Marriage Ends (Bethany House, July 11, 2023), recounts how she
confronted grief and heartache head-on and learned how to rise from the pain. Filled with insight, empathy, and laugh-out-loud humor, Better Than Okay shows it is possible to move forward with hope after divorce.
