If you bring it up beforehand, maybe there’s a risk that the girl or the guy will reject you, but otherwise, you can work through it with a marriage counselor/pastor and I think that openness and honesty will reduce the chance of it ever coming back or otherwise affecting your marriage. If you can'...

Marriage is always a great risk. You really are entrusting your life to another person at a very deep level. I have known various people who married a person with a promiscuous past who have had solid lifelong marriages. The past wasn't denied or hidden, it was repented of, and the person was livin...

A pardon does not mean that the person is innocent, or that he didn’t do what he was convicted of, or that the jury got it wrong. In fact, (I think) a pardon is an act of mercy extended, and one of the conditions of a pardon is that the person excepts his conviction and receives a pardon from the c...
