Divorce has become a noticeable part of our everyday lives in the U.S., and the stats from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) really drive that home. Back in 2019, they reported a divorce rate of 2.7 per 1,000 people, showing just how common it is for couples to face challenges in keeping their relationships going strong. It’s not just one thing causing this – everything from communication troubles to financial stress and compatibility issues can throw a curveball into the mix. Understanding these factors helps us see the real, human side of the ups and downs in modern relationships.

Water’s Edge Ministries is dedicated to supporting couples who aspire to strengthen their marriages, whether they’re facing everyday challenges or more significant issues. Founded by Jim and Sharon Nolson, who have accumulated over 30 years of pastoral experience, this ministry offers donation-supported counseling for individuals, couples, and pastoral couples. Jim and Sharon’s extensive journey in ministry has revealed a crucial need for a “walk alongside ministry” that goes beyond traditional counseling.

This unique approach allows them to provide more time and undivided attention to those seeking help and encouragement. Water’s Edge Ministries creates a safe environment where people can reflect, refresh, and restore.
