Foreword

(wrote the foreword)

Julie Bogart

“Alisha Roth is a modern-day prophet, weaving difficult truths with breathtaking writing. The path she has walked has been hard, yet she has done so with dignity, grace, and courage, discovering the truth that believers need to hear. Courageous Divorce is the needed message that you are not alone and, no matter what, you are still deeply loved by God. Thanks for being brave enough to tell your story and write this book, Alisha. The church needs it.”

Amy Hughes

“Courageous Divorce is a deeply compassionate guide for Christian women facing the painful complexities of ending a marriage. With honesty, strength, and lived experience, Alisha Roth offers insight and support to those navigating confusion, loss, and rebuilding. This book is a lifeline for women who feel unseen in both their marriages and their faith communities. It opens space for healing, clarity, and courage, especially in places where silence has reigned for too long.”

Ginny Yurich

“It takes so much courage to tell a story that goes against the norms of society, marriage, or faith. In fact, the stories that bring us the most pain are the ones we are sure we shouldn’t tell—until we do, and we realize that we aren’t alone, and that in telling our story we are helping someone else tell theirs. In Courageous Divorce, Alisha Roth creates both a practical guide and powerful invitation into deeper faith, and what I think women will get from this book is freedom—freedom to look at their own stories, freedom to trust their voices and their gut, and freedom to make decisions that are difficult if it means they are taken care of. Alisha will take your hand as you read the very first page of this book, and she will hold it all the way through, until you find the path home to yourself. What a gift.”

Kaitlin B Curtice

“Divorce is a scary, confusing, and overwhelming experience; a time when women desperately need the support and companionship of other women who have been there. In Courageous Divorce, Alisha Roth steps into the role of big sister and divorce doula, blending emotional support with practical advice. This book is brave and generous.”
