Nancy Deanne Halliday: My Unintended Journey

Nancy never expected to experience marital unfaithfulness and was grieved to find out her husband's secret after 20 years of marriage. EXTRAordinarly, Nancy found a program at her church that helped her process this betrayal, become closer to Jesus, and learn how to live a more authentic life. Today, she and her husband share their story to help other couples, and she has blossomed in creativity, starting her own interior design business and, recently, a non-profit “dedicated to helping women reclaim their lives after the devastation of a partner’s addiction, infidelity, or abandonment." You will learn so much from Nancy, who is engaging, joyful, and wise.Show Notes:Nancy refers to the program at North Coast Church in Vista, California, called UJ - "Unintended Journey" - North Coast Church (Vista Campus).
