Live for the glory of God
How seriously do we consider God’s laws today? When God gave us His Word, did He take into account what our culture would be like today: The rampant immorality The level of soft porn we see all around us The hook up culture on college campuses The amount of fornication portrayed by Hollywood Maybe today’s […]
I was somewhat dissatisfied with my post “Should Christian Parents Teach Their Children Safe Sex“. As I hit “Publish”, I felt like there was still so much left to be said, that there were avenues of this discussion I hadn’t yet explored and that needed to be addressed. My heart and prayer with this mini-series […]
How should we as parents approach the subject of sexual intimacy with our children in this generation where children lose their virginity so young? Can we expect our children should remain abstinence until marriage, or is that setting them up for failure? We know what the Bible says, but is it enough? The church today […]
Some time ago, I woke up and marched out to my “War Room”. Yes, I marched. I didn’t walk, I didn’t saunter, I didn’t even stumble in those early hours of the morning when normal people are sleeping. I marched. It was symbolic for me. Anyone who battles a chronic illness will understand what I’m […]
I don’t know about you, but as a woman I struggle a lot with anxiety. We’re told as moms that it is normal to worry about our kids; and that we’ll worry about them the rest of our lives. But does it really have to be this way. I think that as women we are […]
If there is anything I know about in my short life of just shy of 50 years, it’s anxiety. I’ve struggled with worry, fear and anxiety (my dad, Dr. Hackett, calls it WuFA) all of my life. I recall as a child laying in my bed paralyzed with the worst kinds of fear about things so […]
Have you ever had a panic attack? Felt the room closing in. Your heart pounding wildly. Your throat closing up, like you can breathe. You couldn’t focus on anything else but the thing that was causing you to panic. A fear of such immense proportion that afterward you felt all wrung out for days, and […]
Recently someone commented on my article “5 Strategic Ways to Recreate Your War Room” and asked the following question: Could you explain one thing to me, though? What is meant by writing out your prayer strategy (#3)? I see people say that all the time, but I’m not clear on how to do that. This […]
“Lord, we need a generation of believers who are not ashamed of the gospel. We need an army of believers who hate to be lukewarm and will stand on Your Word above all else. Raise ’em up, Lord. Raise them up.” War Room: Prayer Is a Powerful Weapon by Chris Fabry The minute we receive Jesus […]
Do you love to read? Maybe you’re like me and you find that because of poor short-term memory, you can read the same book over and over and enjoy it as if you were reading it for the first time. Some people may call this a deficiency. I call it wonderful! I get to enjoy […]
