By Leslie Vernick | June 5, 2019 |

Hi Friends, Wow, this has been a crazy week. We had an overwhelming response to our invitation for new CONQUER members.

Can I Have Good Boundaries And Still Be Compassionate?

By Leslie Vernick | May 29, 2019 |

Morning friends, I’ve made the transition. I’m now up in Pinetop, AZ for the summer months in our little cabin in the woods. My granddaughters are here for two weeks and we are enjoying the cooler weather. Hopefully, it will warm up too, but to 80 degrees and not to 100 degrees.

By Leslie Vernick | May 15, 2019 |

  Morning friends, I am in Canada, Ancaster to be exact, and it’s freezing here. I’ve become a Phoenix girl and cold weather is something I just don’t like anymore. But it is beautiful. I’m here for a meeting and staying in a lovely inn and so it’s not all bad. I just wish it was about 25 degrees warmer.…

Am I Wrong For Not Reconciling?

By Leslie Vernick | May 8, 2019 |

Morning friends, We’ve had a lively discussion on verbal abuse. It never ceases to surprise me how relevant God’s word is to today’s problems. We can’t ignore God’s principles for healthy relationships and expect to reap great connection and loving community, including marriage. Sadly destructive individuals somehow believe that if they say loving things, or say they are sorry, all…

Whom Do I Tell & How Much Do I Share About My Marriage?

By Leslie Vernick | April 24, 2019 |

Morning friends, I had a bad fall today. I slipped on some rocks and fell on a large boulder. Thankfully landing on my rear end and hands and not my head. But it reminded me just how quickly things can change and how fragile our life is. The psalmist prayed, “Teach me to number my days, O Lord, so that…

How To Protect My Client From More Abuse During Visitation

By Leslie Vernick | April 17, 2019 |

Morning friends,Thanks for your prayers. It’s been a busy week with my puppy, Addie. I forgot how much work new puppies are. But she’s been a joy to have and she is starting to connect the dots that her potty stuff needs to go outside. Oops, maybe I spoke too soon, another accident this morning. Today’s question comes from a…
