Our son just came home from his first few weeks at college, and I'm not sure we like what's happening to him. He talks like he's not sure if he believes in God anymore, and sounds like he's just mainly having a good time. What can we do?
My cousin is mad at me because I told her she loves her dogs more than she loves her family. That may sound funny but it's true, and I felt she ought to face it. But she got very offended, and now won't talk to me. Was I wrong to tell her the truth?
My wife and I do volunteer work through our church at a local homeless shelter. But we get very discouraged because so many of the people are involved in drugs or alcohol and yet won't do anything about it. What is the use of trying to help them?
My husband has been almost like a different person in recent months, with wide swings in mood, going from deep depression to excitement with lots of activity, then back to depression—all in the space of a few weeks. He refuses to see a doctor, and says I'm just out to get him. What can I do?
My husband has Alzheimer's disease, and for the last five years I've taken care of him at home. But now it's getting worse, and my family is saying I need to put him in a nursing home. But I can't stand the thought of doing that. How can I know what is the right thing to do?
What does it mean to be poor in spirit, as Jesus said we ought to be? I don't understand this, because it seems to me that we ought to strive to be rich in spirit, not poor. Or am I missing the point?
I've made such a mess of my life and I know God doesn't want anything to do with me, because years ago, when I had the chance to turn my life over to Him, I turned away. I wanted to run my own life, and now I'm paying the price. Please tell people to accept God while they can, or they'll lose out like I have.
Is looking at pornography wrong in God's eyes? I admit I've gotten hooked on it through the Internet (which my wife doesn't know about) but I'm not sure I see anything wrong with it. Do you?
I'd always looked forward to being a mother, but to be honest, I hate it. Our 2-year-old doesn't give me a minute's rest, and the baby is always cranky. I thought it would be fun to be a mother, but I'm exhausted. Please pray I'll have patience.
My cousin had very serious emotional problems most of her life, and finally they overwhelmed her and she committed suicide. I firmly believe she was a Christian, but did she lose her salvation by doing this? Is suicide the unpardonable sin?
For my high school graduation, my aunt gave me a very nice gold cross to wear as a necklace, and she said it would bring me good luck if I wore it. Is she right?
When were the angels created? Or have they always existed, just like God has? I've never seen an angel, and probably never will, but I believe they exist and they do watch over us.
