Is pastor derrick hutchins getting a divorce?
Why are you concerned as to whether or not he is getting a divorce or not? Does it affect YOU one way or the other? Why not concentrate on the things that go on in YOUR household, and leave other men's matters ALONE......it is simply "none of your business." Perhaps you should find some.
How should your husband act if he is truly over his affair?
"ME AND MY SHADOW!" That's exactly true! He'll be trying his very best to be in plain sight when you are around and be as good as he can be. He'll probably try to please you and be a real good boy. Anyone can make one mistake and although I don't blame you for mistrusting him right now (he has broken that trust with you) he does deserve another chance. You just never know if you'd be in a situation of cheating as he was. Most of us never think this could happen to us, but given the right circumstances and the maturity level of the person it's possible.
If he is sneaking phone calls, going off to another room while talking on the phone, working a lot of late nights or not turning up at home until late then I would say you have much to be concerned about.
ANSWER;
From the moment the affairs is been discovered, your life will never be the same anymore. It doesn't matter if it's you or your husband who had the affairs, nothing will be normal anymore between the two of you. You are the only one who can read or notice the action of your husband. But for others, and I will include myself, few things I notied from the man I married, he stop hiding his cell phone, he moved his office desk back to our study room, he stop signing out off his computer, he started calling on the phone again just to say what time he got in to work. But the truth is it doesn't really matter all the changes his showing me, if he wants to do it again, he will find the way no matter what...
What percentage of marriages end in divorce in the United States?
The quick answer: According to the American Psychological Association, about 40 to 50 percent of married couples divorce. However, that range is quite broad, and the numbers hide some important information. By delving deeper into divorce statistics, we can find a more accurate estimate.
First, the crude divorce rate—the total number of divorces during the year per 1,000 people—is 2.9, per the latest figures from the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). The crude marriage rate is currently 6.9. That means that each year, there are about 2.4 marriages for every divorce. At one point, the crude marriage rate was twice the crude divorce rate, and that’s likely where the “50 percent of all marriages end in divorce" saying came from.
But crude divorce rates can be misleading, since saying "the number of divorces is half of the number of marriages" is different from saying "50 percent of all marriages end in divorce." Crude marriage statistics are only accurate for the year they’re measured; in the 1970s, divorce rates rose sharply, but people may have found divorce easier thanks to the introduction of new no-fault marriage laws, and some women may have put off marriage to pursue their careers.
The Problem With Divorce Statistics: They’re ComplicatedDivorce statistics are difficult to accurately measure, and they change significantly over time. Even if you’ve got access to the latest crude statistics, you have to adjust for an enormous number of variables, and the U.S. Census isn’t much help, sense the NCHS stopped collecting detailed data on divorcees' age, income, race, and education back in 1996. That’s unfortunate, because those factors certainly affect the discussion.
Let’s start with a simple example. Some people get married and divorced multiple times, and if you’re trying to determine whether you, personally, have a 50 percent chance of being divorced in your lifetime, you’d probably want to exclude those “serial marriers" from your statistics, or at least make an adjustment so that their numerous divorces don’t cloud the statistics. After all, if a person gets married and divorced twice, they have a significantly higher chance of getting divorced after their third marriage.
Additionally, if you want to determine whether or not you have a high chance of a divorce, you’d also want to restrict your data to people from your generation, since cultural norms change over time. Millennials, for instance, are less likely to get divorced than older generations, but they’re also less likely to get married in the first place.
That brings up another issue, as age also plays a role in trends over time. According to Pew Research, divorce rates have increased among older Americans since 1990, doubling in the 50–65 age bracket and tripling in the 65+ bracket. And while millennials are getting fewer divorces, that trend might change over time—millennials are marrying at older ages than previous generations, so it’s possible that we could hit a “divorce boom" at some point in the future.
That likely will depend on the reasons that millennials are putting off marriage; are they being more selective when choosing their partners, or can they simply not afford to get married in the first place? Divorce rates might jump, but they might not, and a good forecast needs to look closely at the underlying issues rather than the simple statistics.
As you can see, divorce statistics quickly become extremely complex, and because all of these factors change over time, divorce rates become inaccurate almost immediately after they’re measured.
Divorce Statistics Change Over Time, And That Won’t Change Anytime SoonFortunately, there are numbers we can look at to see national trends, as long as we understand that they’re not applicable to every new marriage.
Many social scientists prefer to ask the question this way: What percentage of all people who have ever been married have been divorced? That number peaked at 41 percent, reported The New York Times, and has steadily decreased through the 2000s for most age groups.
Similarly, for the period from 2011 to 2015, the National Survey of Family Growth forecasted that first marriages among women aged 15-44 had about a 45 percent chance of being disrupted (either by divorce or permanent separation) within 15 years. That’s a fairly good number to keep in mind, and seems more accurate than the "40 to 50 percent" range quoted at the beginning of this answer.
But that doesn’t mean that your new marriage has a 45 percent chance of ending in divorce. Your exact chances of encountering a divorce will change based on your age, location, income level, religion, and a host of other statistics that can’t be neatly summed up in a single number. Still, it’s probably the most accurate estimate of nationwide divorce trends—just take it with a grain of salt (and maybe throw a few grains of rice while you’re at it).

Let him divorce you then, God has called us to peace and not to be fighting. Try Jesus Christ for a change. Let God handle your battles. But your husband shouldn't be threating you about the divorce. If he really wanted to divorce you, long time ago he had done it. And you are as guilty as him for allowing it to happen after 14yrs. I would play his bluff. He is just threatening you to steer away from his guilt. You have to be stronger than that men can sense when your weak. If he really wants to leave do you really want him?
it depends on how important that lie was and well i would sit down and decide "do i really want to be with him" "do i really love him" "what can i do for us to not fight so much" basically think about the good things in your relationship and the bad. see which out weighs the other. and well decide if you relationship is worth having and working things out. then well tell him how you feel.
To be perfectly honest, you need to ask yourself why, after 14 years, are you asking this question in the first place. Apparently, always before, you've stayed married. Has something changed in your relationship recently? Was this lie a *different* lie from all the other lies?Then you need to look at your situation honestly. If you say, "Fine! Let's get a divorce!. . . .then you need to think about *these* questions: Can I make it on my own? Do I have a place to live? Can I raise my children (if you have them) alone? (Because realistically with so many deadbeat dads, you should NOT count on either child support OR alimony even if it is part of the settlement) On the other hand, if you decide to try to work things out again (with counseling or your own determination) then you need to realize that unless you BOTH want to work it out--it won't happen. If your husband's heart is set on divorce, then, barring a miracle--no amount of counseling will work. One person acting alone can NOT save a marriage--it takes two to fix a marriage just like it took two to establish the marriage in the first place.
