I’m Afraid Of Rejection

By Leslie Vernick | December 11, 2019 |

Morning friends, I just returned from Chicago where I had a great visit with my parents, siblings and spouses. I’m so grateful I still get to have these wonderful weekends with my family. It’s a tradition my dad and step-mom started years ago. Instead of buying us gifts, they gift us with a dinner out and going together to a…

Even Christian Counselors Need Help

By Leslie Vernick | December 4, 2019 |

Morning friends, I hope you have had a chance to watch my FB live on the statement John MacArthur made, that “Empowered women create weak men.” If you didn’t watch it, you can still see it here.  Once a year I offer my six-month coaching group Empowered to Change for women who want to write a new chapter in their…

How Do I Stop Over functioning?

By Leslie Vernick | November 27, 2019 |

Morning friends, I’m back and it sure feels good to be home and sleep in my own bed. Vacations are great, but I am a girl who loves routine and structure, which doesn’t happen on vacation. It’s good to have a break but equally as good to get back to a routine. If you’d like to see some pictures and…

Is Sex A Choice Or A Requirement?

By Leslie Vernick | November 20, 2019 |

Morning friends, I am returning home today from a much-needed vacation with little Internet and lots of downtimes. We took a leisurely river cruise down the Danube River starting in Budapest and ending in Nuremberg, Germany. I love history, especially WW2 history. There is so much to learn from the mistakes of the past if we will but listen and…

Finding Comfort In God

By Leslie Vernick | November 13, 2019 |

Hi Friends, When you read this I hope I am on a boat for on a much-needed vacation. This has been a crazy season of pouring out and as Jesus did, I need to stop and get away to a quiet place. I don’t think I have ever felt more exhausted mentally, spiritually, and physically. Please pray that this time…

I’m A Mess, He Won’t Change

By Leslie Vernick | November 6, 2019 |

Morning friends, I just got back from my New Jersey speaking event at Hawthorne Gospel Church. One of the things I love about speaking is when I see the ‘lights go on” in women’s eyes when they realize that they are not as powerless, helpless, or hopeless as they’ve thought. You do have choices. You can change the trajectory of…

What Do I Do When My Counselor Overrules My Thoughts?

By Leslie Vernick | October 30, 2019 |

Morning friends, I’ve said this before but it bears repeating. I love this community and the power of the group contributing to the question asked. When I write my response to someone’s question, I cannot possibly cover every possible angle in the amount of space I allot.  That’s why I ask you all to chime in on your perspectives. And…

Morning friends, I just returned from a long travel schedule from Nashville and Ancaster, Canada. Thanks for your prayers. I leave again Thursday for Akron, Ohio and am speaking Saturday all day on relationships, healthy, and unhealthy for women. I would love to meet you. Click here for more details.  Next week I head to New Jersey to speak one…

I’m Separated. Should I Reach Out?

By Leslie Vernick | October 16, 2019 |

Morning friends, I am on the next leg of my trip, in Toronto. I’ve been busy and I need your prayers that I can get better sleep and not get sick. I will be here all week and I have not slept well in Nashville so I am operating at half a tank. Hopefully, here I can catch up a…
