The Most Important Tool for a Happy and Healthy Life

One father quipped to his soon to be son-in-law, “My daughter doesn’t come with an instruction manual. You’ll have to do the best you can!”

Parents of teens often search bookstores for instruction books on raising teens. While there may not be a book with your child’s name on it, our Creator has provided a Book of Wisdom for you.

Yet the devil wants you to doubt the book that provides the way to a happy life. Satan cast doubt on God’s Word with Eve. “Did God really say…” (Genesis 3:1-4). He misled Eve to believe God was holding out on her and there were no consequences for ignoring His warnings.

This should make us question our doubts instead of questioning the Bible. Satan knows if he can make you doubt the reliability of God’s Word he’s got you.Continue Reading

Hope: Abortion Isn’t the Solution to Your Crisis

by 18 Comments

Kelly Jenkins shared her moving story a couple of weeks ago describing her painful dilemma over whether to go through with her scheduled abortion. The daughter she saved turns 30 this month.

Below are the links I promised covering various aspects of this complicated issue. One link is from a post-abortive father. Three decades later, both Kelly and Greg still experience deep emotions when they talk about their respective crises and decisions.

George Orwell said, “In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.” Jesus, a revolutionary in the highest and best way, said “the truth will set you free” (Jn. 8:32). The truth is abortion destroys innocent lives and leaves many others wounded and distressed. Abortion destroys not only individuals but also the nations that permit and foster it. Those being fed lies need caring people to get involved and provide honest answers and real help.

3 Truths That Bring Calm to the Chaos

Today, author Grace Fox introduces her new book and tells us how God carried her through the writing process and used her book to calm and comfort her in loss.  Enjoy Grace’s story of hope.

I liken writing a book to a spiritual journey that reminds me of my dependency on God and leads me into a deeper understanding of who He is. Writing Finding Hope in Crisis: Devotions for Calm in Chaos was no exception. This journey stretched and enriched my faith in profound ways. Specifically, it provided a means for me to witness three of God’s attributes in action.

God’s Sovereignty

I pitched the proposal using a different title in 2018. Two editors expressed interest but later rejected it. I intended to tweak and retitle it, but a busy schedule hindered me. In January 2020, as a friend described a challenge she’d faced three months prior, the existing title—Finding Hope in Crisis—came like a download into my mind.Continue Reading

Are You Feeling Pressured to Have an Abortion?

by 14 Comments

Do you know someone who is considering an abortion? Maybe they are being told that is their only choice. Kelly Jenkins’ story so moved me that I asked permission to share it with you. I hope you’ll not only read it but share it with others, especially those who find themselves in a crisis pregnancy.

Here’s Kelly

I grew up in an abusive home and tried to fill the void and erase the pain with relationships. I became pregnant in 1990.

Everyone in my family, including my grandparents and my boyfriend, wanted me to abort my baby. My mom had had an abortion and said it was no big deal. My father, a physician, said it was just a blob of tissue. He could get meds to relax me so I wouldn’t feel nervous about it. Only my brother said not to do it. He’d gone through this with his girlfriend.Continue Reading
