By Leslie Vernick & Co. | June 11, 2014 |

  Morning friends, Thanks for your prayers and encouragement. I have felt some refreshment to my spirit and am heading to the beach next week for 3 days of R & R.

Is a History of Abuse Doomed To Repeat Itself?

By Leslie Vernick & Co. | June 4, 2014 |

Hi Friends, Pray for me. I’m feeling weary. Could I ask you to hold my arms up high like Aaron and Hur did for Moses when the Israelites were in battle with the Amalekites ([truth]Exodus 17:12[/truth])? He couldn’t do it without the help of faithful others who came alongside of him. I know God wants me in this battle for…

Good morning friends, I spent the weekend celebrating my mother’s 80th birthday with my family and all their friends from over the years.  It is an amazing thing to see a life well-lived up close and my step-mom embodies an ordinary woman who has lived extraordinarily well.

Fred and Marie, A Case Study

By Leslie Vernick & Co. | May 7, 2014 |

Morning Friends, Thanks for your prayers and encouragement. They blessed me deeply. This week I’m going to do something a little different. You know the old saying a picture is worth a thousand words? How about one video? I’m posting a short 15 minute French video (with English subtitles) for you to watch this week. Instead of me answering a question, I…

My Husband Is Willing To Go To Counseling, But How Does That Work?

By Leslie Vernick & Co. | April 30, 2014 |

Hi Friends, I would deeply appreciate your prayers. I feel a bit on overload and just need some time to be quiet, be creative, read, rest, etc. I think I’ve asked this before, but I haven’t really taken the time to actually do it (yes, I’m human like the rest of us and sometimes don’t follow through on what I…

Morning friends, Today is day two of audio taping my book, The Emotionally Destructive Marriage. If you think of me today (Wednesday), say a prayer for me, please. And again for Friday. But, once it’s done, it will be awesome to have this information on audiobook for people to listen to. This week’s question is one from a response to…
