Reviews:
“I wish I would have read this (earlier) to help me understand more of my feelings and what I was going through. The emotional distress, the anger…. almost everything I can relate to. I would have felt a sense of ‘I guess this is normal’ so calm down. No that it would have made it any easier, just more understandable.”

“In her book, The Three Things Divorced Catholics Need to Know, Mary Lou Rosien clearly and succinctly names the misunderstandings and truths surrounding Catholics and divorce. She beautifully examines the Church’s teaching and provides an up-to-date commentary on the annulment process. This book is a must-read for any Catholic who has experienced a divorce.”

"I’m always heartened when I catch wind of a new book that addresses the crisis of divorce from a Catholic perspective because there is so much need for accurate information to be dispensed. This is why I enjoyed and can wholeheartedly recommend a new book by Mary Lou Rosien, titled The Three Things Divorced Catholics Need To Know.
Divorce is such a devastating experience just from a purely legal standpoint, and depending upon how long it actually takes for a court to render a civil divorce decree (which can take years in some cases), it can take a long time for someone going through it to feel as if she has her feet firmly planted on the ground again.
When you consider the spiritual questions and implications that accompany this experience if you are Catholic – such as:
  • Am I welcome at church or should I stay away?
  • Can I receive the sacraments or am I out of luck?
  • Will I be alone for the rest of my life, or will I be able to love again?
. . . it’s easy to understand why there is widespread confusion among Catholics who get divorced."
