The Affair Is Over Now Go Live Your Life Abundantly

In "The Affair is Over Now Go Live Your Life Abundantly," sociologist Dr. Jayne Maugans Swanson offers hope and healing to individuals who have had an affair or been impacted by an affair, including a spouse or partner, a daughter, son or other family member, a friend, to a fellow believer. The focus of this book is on how someone who had an affair or someone who was impacted by an affair needs to reach a point after the affair where the person can go on to live an abundant life, that is, to be who God created the person to be. Someone's success at living an abundant life after an affair can be helped or hindered by others' words and actions, which is a major reason this book is worthwhile for clergy, counselors, coworkers, and correspondents to read as well as for those involved in and impacted by an affair. Living an abundant life after an affair is over happens, explains Dr. Swanson, through a process involving these four steps explored in separate chapters of this book: recognizing, releasing, redeeming, and reconciling. Dr. Swanson draws on her faith, sociological insights, and the Quaker tradition of using queries to help individuals with their journey toward living life abundantly after an affair is over.
