When your parents’ divorce or separation hurts deeply, it can raise painful questions about God: Why didn’t He stop it? And if faith matters so much, why didn’t it save my family?

Joey talks with marriage therapist Doug Hinderer about how affairs happen, why betrayal damages a child’s ability to trust, and how young people from broken families can avoid repeating their parents’ mistakes.
