You can either work on the conflict or get over it. Pick one. Surely the relationship means more to you than being right about what someone should have done.

What We Did to Make Fifty Years
We are a living example. 50 years. Any couple who makes 50 years is worth watching. How did they make it? What did they do? Here are a few things you will see in us that will help you.
Preschool for Adults
Adopt the attitude of a small child. Rely on our heavenly Father. Reaching up to take hold of his hand, you can let him guide you through the storm.
Old Stories for a New Generation
Tell how God’s work has been displayed in scripture, in your own life, and in the lives of others. These stories, even the old ones, are worth telling because of the eternal impact they can make.
Leaders who Empower Others
We work for the maturation of God’s people, helping them to grow in their Christlikeness in every aspect of their lives.
Redemptive Resolutions
Our resolutions as Christians should resonate with sanctification. The things we desire and the habits we commit ourselves to need to be in line with the heart of God.
Love at Christmas
Regardless of the time of Jesus’ birth, love prompted him to meet us much more than halfway. December, and every month of the year, is a time for Christians everywhere to show love to others.
An Impactful Ministry at Elkin Elementary School
Kids are under intense pressure and stress. Due to their limited vocabulary and inability to express themselves, kids experiencing stress are often overlooked.
Our Presence With God
God deeply desires our presence. God never makes it difficult to experience His presence, but we can make it hard through our “spiritual A.D.D.”
Companions for the Journey: Polycarp of Smyrna
It’s so easy to think of others as our enemies. We can give in to the impulse to demonize, to withdraw, or to insult. What if we followed Polycarp’s example by finding ways to show hospitality?
What Does a Mentor Do?
Speak truth. Share your experience. Take them with you. That is how mentors raise the next generation of leaders.
When It Gets Tough
Over the years, I have realized that there are certain things that I need to remember and reflect on during this journey of vision, leadership, and missional engagement.
Collateral Faith: Influencing Main Characters
Sometimes as we are facing difficult things, our manner in doing so impacts more people than we know. We must live faithfully.
Sometimes It's Hard to Forgive
There are people… well, that I have a hard time forgiving. In fact, sometimes forgiving others is the hardest part of my Christian life.
Our Posture Toward God
Our posture is much deeper than a physical posture (sitting, standing, kneeling, etc.). It is a deep inner posture toward God or away from Him. Is our heart and spirit turned toward Him?
Remembering Kent Rideout
Grief is real, but so is hope. And hope in Jesus carries us through the grief all the way home.
Moral Injury and the Power of Lament
Moral injury can cause us to turn inwards due to guilt, grief, or shame. Lament exposes dark deeds to the light and brings God’s mercy and grace to bear.
Serving with Love
Tabitha obviously served with love, and that love was sensed by those who were beneficiaries. She lived out her faith in a tangible way that blessed others.
Companions for the Journey: Elizabeth Ann Seton
Imagine that you are happily married at age twenty. What would you do if, by age thirty, you became widowed and penniless, and a parent to a dozen children?
Know, Go, Do
Knowledge has power, but only when it is put to use. If this is the case, we must ask ourselves what we are doing with the knowledge we have of Christ.
