I tease people I am married to my accountant, my lawyer, my marriage counselor, my therapist, my best friend, my assistant coach, and nurse and the best thing of all I am not a polygamist.

I love to read what you say about your wife - - a true inspiration! Maybe sometime we can get her to tell us a bit about her thoughts on you!

Married 10 years, somedays it seems longer and somedays I wonder where the time has gone.
Two boys ages 2 and almost 3 months.
Were in official ministry for the first 6 years, worked secular throughout entire marriage.
Now we're just raising kids and paying bills and teaching a home Bible study when we can.

Divorced and single. Was married for just over 4 years. Divorce was final November 6th.

Not comfortable with being single yet... but it's growing on me. It's certainly not the worst thing in the world to be single.

I was married 15 years, have been divorced for the better part of 14 years, and was also in active ministry. We had two children who were raised my myself as a single parent. The children were 9 & 11 years old when we separated. My son lived with his father for 18 months at age 14 at his request and then came back to live with me the last two years of High School. My children are now married and one of them have two children.

I am still standing.

Blessings, Rhoni

Married almost 12 years.
Divorced in April of this year.

Proud and responsible father of two angels on loan from God.
Comfortably single but lonely at times.
