Our discussion on divorce begins at 8min 44sec, but before that Nathan and Emily get sidetracked by Marvel toys. (Just where did our Nightcrawler action figures disappear to?) Then we dive into Emily's past and talk about her divorce, what she believes the Bible has to say on the topic, and why she believes our misunderstanding of Scripture often leads to abuse in marriages. Nathan shares how his views on divorce help him be a better husband.

Highlights include: Are we misquoting Scripture when we quote Malachi 2:16 as "God hates divorce"? Who is responsible for the laws on divorce in Deuteronomy, Moses or God? Are all marriages of God? What do Abraham and Hagar have to teach us about divorce?
