Episode Description from the Publisher

“My husband finally agreed to get help… What do we do now?” For years you may have prayed for your husband to recognize his alcoholism and addiction. But as wives when that moment finally comes, along with relief and hope, we feel overwhelmed with a whole new path of decisions to navigate. What rehab program does he need? What if he chooses the wrong one? Should it be a Christian recovery program? What if this is our only chance and we mess it up? In this Listener Q&A episode of Wife on the Rocks, we talk about what it was really like navigating detox, rehab, treatment decisions, and recovery as a family. We discuss: What I thought addiction treatment would look like vs. the reality • Why getting help quickly can matter when someone struggling with alcohol addiction is finally willing • The challenges of insurance, availability, and finding a rehab program • Why some faith-based programs may carry God’s name but not always reflect God’s heart • The struggle of accepting the recovery path your husband chooses — even if it’s different than what you imagined • Letting go of control and trusting God with the open doors If you are a Christian wife wondering how to help your alcoholic husband, questioning rehab options, battling codependency through all of this, or trying to trust God through addiction recovery, this conversation is for you! Lean in to hear our experience <3 And stay tuned — next week we’ll continue answering more listener questions about alcoholism, treatment, and recovery. 📩 Have a question for a future Listener Q&A episode?
