Have you walked away from your faith and your spouse hasn’t? Are you struggling to find common ground? How can you manage this difference in your marriage? Can you make your marriage work?  This week we’ll be navigating through these tough questions and more. Join us as we talk with Rebecca Williams and provide you with some helpful tools on how to manage Mixed Secular/Religious Relationships.
Rebecca Williams, LMFT, is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. She is the owner of Inland Empire Couples Counseling and specializes in helping mixed faith and religious/secular couples have connected, intimate, satisfying relationships. In addition to education and professional experience, Rebecca knows from personal experience how hard it is to leave your faith but not want to leave your marriage too. Rebecca is developing an online course for religious/secular couples and also helps individuals who want to recover from the damaging or traumatizing effects of religion to go on and live their best lives.
This discussion is hosted by Eric Wells, the RfR Support Group Director, and Todd Yoder, the RfR Helpline Director.
