Godly Separation: Navigating Finances, Fear, and a Failing Marriage
Happy September, Friends! September has always felt like a month in between, where one thing ends, but the next hasn’t fully begun. The air turns cooler, the days grow shorter, and everything seems to be slowly loosening its grip on summer. I feel that same shift in my spirit lately: a quiet separation from something familiar, but the picture of…
Does Requiring Disclosure Mean I’m Controlling?
Morning friend, Whew, we just finished our live/virtual CONQUER conference in Scottsdale and it was amazing. The Holy Spirit was present and the women grew in Resilience. I am so honored to lead this wonderful group of women. Thanks for your prayers for the event. They are deeply appreciated. Question: Is it abusive for me to require my husband to…
What If Every Conversation Was Not a Fight?
Hello, my dear sisters in faith, Ah, spring! There’s something truly rejuvenating about this time of year, isn’t there? As the earth reawakens, blanketing our surroundings in vibrant colors and lively sounds, it naturally invites us to do some rejuvenating of our own—not just in our homes but in our financial lives as well. It’s the perfect time to dust…
Help! I’m Being Locked Out of Our Joint Account
Morning friend, This week I’m in North Carolina at a Haven House Retreat with Lysa Terkeurst and team. Prayers appreciated. Question: I am not sure what to do currently. To make a long story short, there was fraud on mine and husband’s bank accounts. He was told by the bank to close and open new accounts but the thing is,…
Am I Selfish for Stopping My Enabling Behaviors?
Morning friend, Next week I’m going to Paris with my granddaughter for her 13th birthday. Each of my granddaughters get to pick where they would like to go for this special milestone. I thought we’d better do this at 13 years old instead of 18 because by 18 they may not want to hang out with their grandparents for a…
I’m Stuck. How Do I Help Him See His Problem Instead of Blaming Me?
Morning friend, I’ve been reading through Proverbs in the month of January. One chapter a day for 31 days. If you’ve never done that, I highly encourage you to try it. If you’re confused, and need wisdom for your life, especially when dealing with destructive individuals read it each day with these three categories of people in mind, and ask…
He Doesn’t Hit Me, Is It Still Abuse?
Morning friend, I’m scared. The world has turned upside down over the past week just as we thought things were returning to normal. What do we do with our body when it’s still shaking after watching the news? Or our mind when we see pictures of children dying and mothers fleeing their homes with littles in tow? Or our emotions…
Is It Wrong To Go To Court?
Morning friend, Thanks for all your support for one another on this site. This next question does not have a one size fits all answer. But I thought I’d address it because many of you will face similar situations. How do you deal with injustice? Do you keep fighting or let it go, especially when letting it go costs you? …
Forgiving Doesn’t Erase Consequences
Morning friend, We’ve had quite a robust and controversial discussion on forgiveness on my FB page. Is forgiveness Biblically required when someone isn’t sorry? Does God command it even if someone isn’t repentant? Do we have to clean up our sin before God forgives us? If we don’t forgive, is our spiritual life impacted? And is God’s forgiveness of us…
