Conclusion:
Divorced couples in Albuquerque, New Mexico, can take advantage of a new business in town.
The company is called Freedom Rings: Jewelry for the Divorced.
Founded by jeweler and divorcee Lynn Peters, the company makes custom jewelry out of wedding rings.
Each customer at Freedom Rings pays a fee, and the ring-smashing ceremony begins--complete with champagne and music.
Just before the smashing the M.C. says, "We will now release any remaining ties to your past by transforming your ring--which represents the past--into a token of your new beginning.
Now take the hammer.
Stop for a moment to consider the transformation that is about to begin your new life.
Ready?
With this swing let freedom ring!"
She then uses a four-pound sledgehammer to whack her emblem of love and fidelity into a shapeless piece of metal.
And the ceremony ends.
Women are pounding their wedding rings into pendants and men are grinding theirs into golf ball markers.
They are looking for a fresh start, a new beginning.
I have great news for you.
There is a better way for a new beginning.
2,000 years ago some Roman soldiers pounded three nails into the hands and feet of a man named Jesus who was called The Christ.
The pounding of those nails into his body broke all the chains of your past.
Your freedom rang out on a hot Jerusalem day when they laid Jesus on the cross and pounded those nails for you.
He went through the agony of crucifixion so that your sins could be forgiven.
