Friend, if you’ve ever wondered if some families are too far gone for help, you need to hear Alli’s* story. “My husband was an alcoholic and very verbally abusive,” she explains. “I had to decide if I should leave my husband.” Real families like Alli’s need real help. We hear from families in crisis daily, especially after the challenges of last year. Even healthy marriages suffered during the pandemic. The good news is that God can use you to offer REAL FAMILIES REAL HOPE starting today. No situation is too far gone for God. For more than 40 years, God has used Focus on the Family to share His hope and grace with struggling families. From broadcasts to counseling resources to print and online articles, friends like you with a heart for families have stood with us to make it happen. Throughout the past year, supporters provided biblical, practical resources for struggling families, and they continue to do so today. Alli found help in her darkest time. “I listened to Focus on the Family every day, soaking up the knowledge,” she says. “One day there was a woman on the program who talked about the problems in her marriage and how she decided to stay with her husband. I made that commitment, too, and asked God to help me. It was definitely not easy, but God gave me little blessings along the way.” Eventually, Alli’s prayers were answered! Her husband quit drinking and decided to attend church with Alli. “He prayed to accept the Lord, and he has been a faithful attender since. Despite all the years of the devil’s attacks, I have been blessed more than I ever could imagine. We recently celebrated our 45th anniversary. Our marriage is better than it ever has been!” This is the type of hope-giving, marriage-restoring difference you can make by supporting Focus on the Family today.
