This year normal holiday festivities are changed.  They may be virtual or non-existent, but our need for community and connection remains strong.   Even if you are single, divorced, or living out a “new normal” during this time, remember, you are not alone.

Am I Judging Or Discerning?

By Leslie Vernick | July 29, 2020 |

Morning Friends, It’s been a tough week. Thanks for your prayers. Two dear friends have COVID-19 and feeling pretty flu-ish.

By Leslie Vernick | July 17, 2019 |

Morning friends, I am back in Phoenix for the week and boy oh boy is it hot. I forgot how hot it can get here. I can walk our dog for about 5 minutes and then we both are seeking shelter. She’s not used to it either. We both miss our long evening walks in the cool mountain air. But…

By Leslie Vernick | February 6, 2019 |

Morning friends, We’ve had quite a robust dialogue this past week, haven’t we? I think this is good. We all need truth tellers in our life to help us rightly divide the Word of God and also to see our situation more clearly. It’s both/and, not either or. Our blogger Veronica is right. Our ultimate truth tellers are God’s word…

Morning friend, I’m heading out West this week to visit my three favorite little girls who just can’t wait to see their Nana and Pop-pop. We will be babysitting for the first time for a few nights while their parents get a much-needed break. Pray for us and them. They’ve never stayed with us for a few days without their…

By Leslie Vernick | March 2, 2016 |

Morning friends, Thank you for all your additions and personal examples of what constitutes abusive behavior. I have been very sick this week and unable to work  so I haven’t been able to comment, but I do want to add just a few more thoughts. I think it’s important to make a crucial distinction between an abusive incident (one-time bad…
