“Our trials are similar. Don't delay what should be addressed at the beginning of the process in hopes that you can avoid it or somehow minimize your suffering. As excruciating as it feels at the time, doing the right thing and being obedient to God allows you to move through the process faster and more aware of what is to come.”

“Jesus didn't come to conde,n the world. If God wanted to condemn the world, he would have send us a condemner. But he wanted to save the world, so he sent us a Savior (John 3:17).”

“It has amazed me in the past to see people lose their way when they allow their hairdresser, whose own world is a catastrophe, to become their counselor. Nothing against hairdressers, but the same can be said of unchurched colleagues and neighbors. Sharing your woes with people whose own lives don't line up with the will of God can lead to bad advice and poor choices. Look for the people in your life who love you and love God wnd clearly want what's best for you, with no agendas or strings attrached.”

“Finally, as you walk the difficult path with others - as you lean into their strength - stay focused on forward motion. Learn from the past, yes, especially if there are choices you could have made differently - that's Wisdom 101. But you must also embrace the present and realize that you can't change the past. You must move forward with courage, not rushing things, but not staying fixated on whatever trauma has occurred.”

“There is nobody who doesn't deserve to walk into their local church and have others look them in the eye and understand that we are all in the same position. We are all sinful, flawed, selfish, imperfect people - saved only by the grace of God and the love of Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit.”
