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

My Friend’s Turned On Me After My Divorce – How Can I Recover?
Hi Friends I’m in Chicago and just finished visiting with my family and doing a radio program for Moody Mid-Day Connection on The Emotionally Destructive Marriage.

How Do I Break Up With A Destructive Friend?
Morning friends, We’ve been talking about our shadow and different parts of ourselves over the last few weeks.
