Thank you so much for this! Yes, some long deep rooted things have come to surface as of lately and it might get ugly, but God will walk through all of it with us. I just pray that she will accept help.

Thanks everyone for your advice. I have talked to other family members and am now aware that this behavior has been going on for 50+ years. I am very concerned of bipolar disorder and/or that my parent may just have a very manipulative personality. The best way I know how to help at this point...

How can I help a very close family member with what I perceive could be mental illness, when the person does not see anything wrong in what they are doing and becomes angry and turns it around on you when you try to address the issue? Several family members have tried to say something and this...

“Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” ‭‭James‬ ‭5‬:‭16‬ ‭KJV‬‬ https://bible.com/bible/1/jas.5.16.KJV When I have a need for someone to pray for someone for the same prayer, like an...

Thanks so much! I hadn’t even thought about YouTube shorts! These are great!

Thanks again! These are awesome. The Chosen is a great series! She has not watched with us; she’s not a big tv watcher.

Thank you so much for such a thoughtful response! I will definitely use these.

My daughter will leave for college next week. This will be a lot of firsts for our family. It came to mind today in church to send her a Bible verse each day. I could do this on the Bible app, I do the verse of the day and daily scripture and prayer, I could just send it along to her as well...

Thank you. I will check this out! I skimmed thru it and says mention of the Pearls. I regularly watch their YouTube channel, The Door. We are fortunate that we live in a very rural part of the country. I am very thankful for that. He’s very laid back, go with the flow, gets excited about...

It was a quiet moment for me, early one morning while laying in bed I was led to pray and gave my lid to the Lord. At times this has made me doubt my salvation because it wasn’t a big emotional, loud, bring you out of a huge life trial kind of thing. When I feel like that I am always reminded...

I recently heard about the LSB translation on a YouTube short. I had never heard of it before. The short said it’s one of the most accurate word for word translations. My first read of the Bible thru that I understood well was the nkjv (although I think that had more to do with God opening my...

I will check that out. Thank you! We do things together; meals, he does chores and works on things around the house with dad, they watch sports together. He plays basketball and we go to his games and support him in that. I work at his school. Other than seeing everyone at basketball practice...

Anyone out there parenting teenage boys? Mine is late teens and so quiet. He barely says anything to us; yes/no/maybe/I don’t know/I don’t care answers…we see him with friends though and his mouth is always moving! He’s a good kid; does anything we tell him without complaint, never asks for...

I use the Bible app for my daily reading. I also do the verse of the day and guided scripture in the morning and the guided prayer at night as a kind of prayer starter for my prayer time. I utilize the prayer list feature as well and keep a list of people/situations I would like to pray about...

I had a thought the other day about Moses and the bronze serpent; how the people looked at the serpent to be healed after being bitten and how that points to Christ on the cross forgiving our sins. I know and have heard it taught they looked at the serpent in faith they’d be healed and we look...
