In the typical female’s mind, it is extremely difficult to conceptualize, rationally and emotionally, why her husband would fall into sexual sin. Often, the wife finds it difficult to get the help and support she needs when sexual sin has been discovered. While there are specific needs for the husband struggling with sexual sin, there is also a need for intervention for the marriage and for issues the wife may face.

Wives in these types of situations will deal with a variety of emotional, behavioral, spiritual, and interpersonal reactions. Her reactions will also impact how the husband progresses in his own recovery. In addition to the resources offered from our website, we encourage wives of husband’s dealing with sexual sin to reach out and find support from the church, friends, or family.
