This Was Never the Plan

Walking with God Through the Heartache of Divorce
Book •
Vaneetha Risner recounts her own experience of an unexpected divorce and the accompanying shame, grief, and identity loss, while drawing readers toward gospel-centered hope.

The book combines personal story with scriptural reflection, practical counsel on lament, healing, parenting, and community, and encouragement to trust God's faithfulness.

Risner addresses common church reactions to divorce and offers guidance for both those who are divorced and those who minister to them.

She emphasizes reclaiming identity in Christ, lamenting honestly before God, and resisting bitterness as keys to healing.

The work aims to equip readers to walk with God through heartache and to foster compassionate responses within the church.
