Breaking Up in the New Year: A January Phenomenon
There is a surge of applications for divorce in the month of January. Why is that?
Hayley Scully of Hope for the Heart shares that the same new sense of courage that causes us to dive into a radical diet plan may be behind what is known as “Divorce January.”
Then, Perry and Shawna listener Jermaine has gone through a divorce he didn’t want and he’s in a season of deep sadness. He wonders if hoping for remarriage should be a goal at all.
Marriage is hard. It just is. How do you know if what you’re going through is just “normal” or if it’s time to get help? Before we book an appointment with a marriage counselor are there other resources that could be helpful?
Divorce is more painful than the death of a spouse. In the aftermath of divorce it’s dark and it may seem like it will be dark forever. If that’s the season you’re in you may be asking, “Will the sun ever break through the clouds of my life again?”

Shawna Beyer
Shawna Beyer has a way of telling stories that create personal connection— to her, to one another, and to God. She has been a homeschool mom, church planter, project lead for a consulting company, and church staff member. Though she’s been involved in ministry with her husband (Dan) in Iowa, Arizona, and now Michigan, she was born and raised in Southern California and as they say, “You can take the girl out of California . . .” She is mom to four grown kids (Bryn, Drayson, Eden, and Haven) who no longer need her but humor her anyway. Shawna is passionate about the rhythms we weave into the fabric of our lives to fall more in love with God each day. Healthy foods are her go-to, but she will abandon that whole track in a heartbeat for a homemade cinnamon roll like Grandma used to make.
