People who have made major life changes cannot live “in the shadows” of their old lifestyles. There must be a deliberation as we go through our days, months, years…our lives. How can we afford to do less? If we “ad-lib” our lives, old habits will creep back in…if we are not thinking about the changes [...]

During the age of Innocence, the desire to procreate was as natural and joyful as the enjoyment of watching a beautiful sunrise. Mankind had no need or desire to elevate the gift of sexual intimacy beyond any other gifts and blessings from the Creator.

If you are living a life that is less than honest…if you are pretending to be “happy” when you are actually sad or angry or pretending in any of thousands of other ways: you will be empty and unhappy.

Most of us understand that from sunrise and all throughout the day, we are faced with evil. We are faced with temptations to lie…to cheat…to flirt…to look at something we should not, etc. Only you know the temptations that enter your life from morning until night and sometimes through the night. We have an enemy [...]

The group of prison inmates we worked with this week touched my heart…touched my heart like no group has ever touched me before.
