Lysa TerKeurst Celebrates Second Marriage after ‘Painful’ Divorce

Best-selling creator and Proverbs 31 Ministries founder Lysa TerKeurst has announced that she has remarried two years after her divorce from her husband, Art TerKeurst, after 29 years of marriage.

“I need to ask you in to share a latest chapter in my life,” TerKeurst captioned in a post on Instagram on Thursday.

According to The Christian Post, the post included several photos from her wedding to her latest husband, Chaz.

“In January of 2023, I met Chaz. And because the pages kept turning last 12 months, we knew what we’d present in one another was love. A fantastic love that requires work like love at all times does. But a togetherness that’s protected, honest, fun, funny and surrendered to the sacred way God tells us to like and look after one another.”

“We got engaged last fall, which I made a decision to carry private so I could tell as many individuals as possible nose to nose. I got to inform a lot of you once we saw one another at stores and airports and low shops and dinners and FaceTimes. Those were sweet conversations I treasure.”

“And then last week, surrounded by our family and a few beautiful mountains, Chaz and I exchanged our vows. As soon as we were announced husband and wife, some fun music began playing. I invited our youngsters and grandkids to hitch in as all of us danced within the gently falling snow.”

In January 2022, Terkeurst announced she had filed for divorce from Art in 2021 on account of infidelity. While she initially desired to divorce her husband in 2017 due to infidelity and addiction, the couple renewed their vows a 12 months later after restoring their marriage.

However, she searched for divorce a second time after Art broke the renewed vows. A subsequent court filing found that Art spent greater than $118,000 on an extramarital affair with a lady he met on SugarDaddy.com.

“Over the past several years, I even have fought really hard to not only save my marriage, but to survive the devastation of what consistent deception of 1 spouse does to the opposite,” she wrote on the time. “It’s brutal and heart crushing to always fear the hurtful decisions of somebody you’re keen on. I’ve needed to learn the hard way there’s an enormous difference between mistakes (which all of us make) and chosen patterns of behavior that dishonor God and the biblical covenant of marriage.”

With Art, the couple have five adult children together.

In her recent post, TerKeurst pointed to God’s faithfulness amid her seasons of hardship.

“God is kind. God is faithful. When life begs me to imagine otherwise, I remind myself that God’s not done yet. There’s more to be revealed. We’ll see,” she wrote.

“And though I sometimes still feel pricks of pain over some really hard stuff previously, I’m so grateful I didn’t stay stuck attempting to make things occur my way and in my timing. In my stubbornness, I assumed I knew what was best. It was God’s grace all those times He told me ‘no,’” TerKeurst continued.

“God helped me learn to lean on Him within the midst of my biggest disappointments and tips on how to sit alone and be okay. He helped me fight battles which are still occurring, not with one great big miraculous intervention, but as a substitute with day by day provisions and assurances.”

TerKeurst, who leads Proverbs 31 Ministries, has authored several New York Times bestselling books, including It’s Not Supposed to Be This Way and Forgiving What You Can’t Forget.
