My Husband is Stuck in Victim Mindset and is Draining Me
Morning friend, Let me ask you a question that I’ve been pondering this week. Are you living each day doing what you want, or what someone else requires or wants?

How Much More Time Before I Feel Normal Again?
Morning friend, Today I was busy doing the webinars for the 4 Big Lies that Christian women believe that keep them stuck, afraid and confused in their destructive marriage so I invited my friend and colleague Wendy Douglas to share with you her answer to one of our reader’s questions.

I’m In A Destructive Relationship With Myself
Morning friend, We spend a lot of time figuring out how to handle the destructive person in our life but what if the destructive person is in our own head?

How Do The Wicked Become Wicked?
Morning friends, I’ve been reading through the book of Proverbs this month. I read the chapter that corresponds to each day of the month. I’ve been doing this for years and I’d encourage you to do so as well. God tells us in Proverbs that there is nothing more important for you to get than wisdom. Wisdom will save you…
When Is It Biblical Abandonment?
Morning friends, How many of you set a New Years Resolution for 2021? Maybe to get into shape or lose weight? Those seem to be the #1 goals most people set. Did you know that most people who make New Years Resolutions don’t keep them? In fact, about 3 weeks into January, they are back to their old habits. That’s…

Holidays are usually pretty tough for people in destructive relationships and my prayers are for you to remember God has given you an incredible gift of his peace.
