This roughsoul unfortunately knows what it means to be a troubled soul. Anxiety is horrible to live with. A few things have helped me. 1. Focus on what you know and try not to worry about what you don't. (what you know is truth, what you don't is false until proven otherwise). 2. Prayer and...

I would hire a different nurse. If the nurse cannot do their job while handling difficult patients then they should be fired. As for mental health, do what you can to find any time to intentionally take a break. Most often mental illness is at its worst when exhausted.

1 Corinthians 15:58 New International Version 58 Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.

We do not count success by counting the harvest, we count success in the process of the labor. 1 Corinthians 15:58 New International Version 58 Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that...

Thank you! Feels like a long road at times while other times it is as if the near is end.

Galatians 6:9 New International Version 9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. For those of us who have planted gardens or farmed land you know quite well the labor it takes to prepare a harvest. Fortunately for the farmer...

It is unfortunate that so many are unchurched due to spiritual abuse. But even more so that the red flags are always there but many miss them or refuse to see them until it's too late.

Love this idea. My daughter did this once to an elderly woman and it about brought her to tears. I think 10mm wrench sockets would work great on the men's side 😂 joking as it is common that 10mm being most used tends to get lost.

I'm currently organizing a scouting organization who has partnered with a new evangelism ministry. The evangelism ministry is just getting started so I'm looking for evangelism ideas that can incorporate fathers and sons to see faith in action.

That is what I always admired about great preachers who led revivals, it was always centered on the simple gospel message.

Thank you Deuteronomy, I actually have read the book Tactics but not his other book. You are right, it is a great book and a great reminder that the true focus should be on planting because it is God who waters and once the harvest is ready, the workers are sent out to harvest the fruit of the...

I only dislike gnats, mosquitos, flies, roaches, and venomous spiders. All of these get exterminated in the home. Outside the home, I typically only kill mosquitos. Nonpests like no nonvenomous spiders, centipedes, etc in the home we typically catch and relocate outside. Although my wife does...

In what ways have you found to be successful in evangelism?

Being a history nerd really helps to put things in perspective. At this point, I think the only thing that could outdo the horrors of history is atomic warfare or Revelation events. Other than that, the horrific stories of ancient history or even 60 to 80 years ago make me thankful for where we...

The world has always been dark except for the time before the fall and the year or so after the flood. But other than that humans have always had to fight off darkness. In history, we have seen horrific times where darkness prevailed while other times when light found its way.

I'm sorry I know it must be so difficult with so much going on. Feeling surrounded is no easy feeling. It is very suspicious to not be around when you should be. That is not a good sign. You are doing the right thing by ministering to your sister. With your help and prayers, I'm certain she...

Grief is a never-ending rollercoaster but the hills and turns will get less extreme. Like any rollercoaster, you are locked in and once it has started, you have no choice but to ride it out. If the coaster stops in mid-flip, there is a problem. Not to confuse seasons of slower progress but to...

Sounds like there isn't a team mentality but more so authoritarian or apathetic mentality where emotionally the BIL has given up on communication. The healthy response is to treat the money as a dual account. He shouldn't be making financial decisions without at least a middle-ground approach...

Sounds like a spinning out-of-control situation. It definitely isn't ideal but I wonder what would happen to the kids if the daughter doesn't mature up or runs away. A very difficult position for your BIL who I would assume is hoping his daughter will get her life together all the while has...

I mean she obviously has biblical grounds for divorce but to answer your question. Being involved in ministry I have seen people heal from adultery and stay committed. Rare but it definitely took an act of God to heal the couple. It took true repentance, trust building, therapy, and true acts of...
