    I need a game plan as I am about to get quizzed. I'd say leading the family in devotional time is very important. Having family game nights and activities. Encouraging the children, and also limiting what they watch and play. There is far more to it.

    Well, it looks like abandoning your family/wife, divorcing her without scriptural grounds, then lusting after women on dating sites seems to be working for you, so why change?

    #1 is to live the gospel (being in the Word daily is a prerequisite to this)
    #2 be a servant to your family
    #3 serve God outside the home and bring your family with you
    #4 sacrificially love your wife
    #5 discipline your children when needed, guide them through growing up

    No, you are not. Your divorce was a fraud committed against both your wife and God. And you have yet to repent of your sin.

    Well, "that way" is the only acceptable reason for divorce according to the Scriptures.

    Do you realize that your divorce is a very blatant and serious sin?

    What is the verse that says you are free? You are embracing the "feel good" theology you have spoken against.

    These people who do not even know the whole story are all for me taking emotional abuse.

    Have you ever taken emotional abuse? Or do you even know what that is?

    1 Corinthians 7:11

    You might want to read the whole chapter.

    Oh trust me - plenty. But I made a very good choice in a husband, had counsel from others who said that ours would be a good marriage and we have worked for the last 31 years to make our marriage great. I'm sure I haven't always made it easy for him to be married to me but he is a man of his word, trusts and obeys God and has worked to live a life pleasing to Christ and he has taught me a whole lot about love and sacrifice.

    Well I made a mistake then and should never have left the house but stood my ground. Regardless the text does not say I cannot remarry.
