A film produced especially for clergy and lay leaders to use in their congregations.
The book Between Two Worlds: The Inner Lives of Children of Divorce reports a new national study on how childhood divorce affects young people’s moral and spiritual journeys and religious identities. It was credited with “rekindling” the national debate on whether there is any such thing as a “good” divorce. Now, for the first time, that story is being told in a 30 minute documentary narrated by author Elizabeth Marquardt and featuring interviews with seven grown children of divorce talking about faith, family of origin, and marriage hopes and fears.
One-quarter of today’s young adults are children of divorce. Of those who were active in a church when their parents split up, two-thirds say no one from the clergy or congregation reached out to them at that time. When they grow up, young adults from divorced families are overall much less religious and much less likely to be tied to a faith community. Find out why, and what faith communities can do, in this new film produced especially for clergy and lay religious leaders to use in their congregations.
The DVD is $12.00 (plus $2.00 shipping and handling). To order, please download this form (pdf) or visit: http://www.americanvalues.org/html/order_form.html
