“Few are willing to share their experience of divorce in print. My friend, John Greco, did—and we should be thankful. This book can be helpful for those recovering from divorce, not by giving them superficial or sentimental answers to dealing with their pain, anger and sense of abandonment, but by taking them back to the gospel truth of Gods sacrificial love, absolute sovereignty and transforming power. And it can assist those who minister to others in their broken state by alerting them to hurtful misconceptions and guiding them to biblical truths that truly help and heal. John reminds all of ussingle, married and divorcedthat God should be our deepest desire, and that our greatest delight and joy is found in Him alone.”

“Ive always marveled at Josephs perspective in Genesis 50:20. He acknowledged the deep pain his brothers had inflicted on him, but also recognized Gods sovereign ability to transform his personal pain into something beautiful. I had the same feeling as I read Broken Vows. John Greco does a beautiful job making it clear that though he never wanted his marriage to end, he would never trade the intimacy he now enjoys with his Heavenly Father. This book is filled with wisdom from cover to cover. Its the overflow of a painful personal struggle that resulted in a life full of authenticity and hope.”
