Helping Spouses Recover from Sexual Sin
I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve been invited to speak at the 2017 UNBOXED Conference here in Orlando on April 20-22th. At last year’s UNBOXED Conference, Barry Mattox addressed the pornography issue from a pro-active, preventative stance for families. This year, I will address the reality and consequences of sexual sin within the Christian marriages […]

Building Personal and Spiritual Growth
This week’s blog appears in the Women’s section of Disciples Today. I hated Algebra in high school. Geometry, however, made sense to me. I really liked ‘if-then’ statements like this: If a = b, and b = c, then a = c. It works great when you have to find the angle of […]

We can use conflict to batter one another. Or we can use it to sharpen ourselves and build deeper relationships with friends and family. The choice is ours.

Why Porn and Adultery Rock Our World
You may not know it (I didn’t), but pornography has silently become the new cancer of society. And those who attend church are not exempt. A few facts: 68% of church-going men and 22% of women regularly view pornography. [1] 35% Christian men and 17% of Christian women have committed adultery. These percentages are the same as […]

Pushing Past Hurts to Build Deep Relationships
You’ve probably heard this quote by Ellen Johnson Sirleaf: “If your dreams do not scare you, they are not big enough.” Many of us dream of having great relationships with a spouse, children, co-workers, neighbors, friends or extended family. Even self-professed loners long for fulfilling relationships. It’s in our DNA because God made us social creatures: […]

Why We Lie
Lying to others is deplorable. It erodes trust, the glue in any relationship. You don’t have to look to the political arena to see it either. Look at your workplace, in your home, and even in your own heart. But lying to ourselves (and to God) is worse than lying to others. It’s a sign […]

Change Bad Habits with the Power of Replacement
Replacement is my new watchword. It’s my key to changing anything I don’t like about my life. This may seem simplistic and even intuitive but let’s see how well we measure up with this little quiz.
