Marriage
The Most Powerful Marriage Secret I Know!
"As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another." These powerful words were penned thousands of years ago. In today's world—with the divorce rate in the United States around fifty percent—these words can have a tremendous impact upon your most important relationships.


Parenting
Key to Your Child's Heart

Keeping Your Battery Charged: Discovering God's Best
Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened." Luke 11:5-10

I acted out this parable in my mind to try to understand it. I pictured myself as the person who went next door to borrow three loaves of bread for my unexpected visitor. I began to knock on my neighbor's door at midnight. "Don't bother us," I heard him shout. "We're all in bed. I can't get up and give you anything." But I knew that if he did not help me I would only have to pass the word around the community the next day and he would be ostracized.
