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 […]
Do I Have To Make Amends To My Abuser?
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 […]
Am I Wrong For Not Reconciling?
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 […]
What is Verbal Abuse?
Morning friends, Thanks for your prayers. My body is healing from last week’s fall. My finger is still pretty stiff and swollen but each day I feel better. If you haven’t had a chance to check them out, I’d encourage you to head over to my Facebook professional page and start watching our short 3-5 […]
Whom Do I Tell & How Much Do I Share About My Marriage?
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 […]
How Do I Stay Well With A Negative And Critical Man?
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 […]
How Do I Answer My Pastor When He Uses Romans 12:1-2
Morning friends, Wohoo, I found a puppy. Actually, someone from this blog told me about her. She was just born this past week and my granddaughters and I have decided on Addison for her name, (Addie) for short. She is an Australian Labradoodle and the litter has two girls in it so I’m not […]
My Husband Says It’s My Disrespect That Causes Him To Hit Me
Morning friends, I really appreciate this community and the help and support you give one another. I am on a puppy quest. As most of you know my beloved dog Gracie died over a year ago. I didn’t think I would ever get another dog, but I miss a furry companion and have started the […]
Am I Being A Bad Example?
Morning friends and Happy Holidays, I know for many of you this week of holiday happenings is nothing but stressful. I hope you are giving yourself some time to be with Jesus so that you not only remind yourself of God’s love demonstrated in the birth of Christ, but you can remind yourself of […]
My Kids Are Treating Me Disdainfully
Morning friends, I want you to know how thankful I am for all of you. Your community and caring for one another continues to bless me. I know at times there can be different opinions or different approaches on how to handle various situations, but that only illustrates the messiness of real life and the […]
