How To Forgive Someone... When You Really Don't Want To
We’ve all heard the saying, “You have to forgive, but you don’t have to forget.” I won’t refute that, but you have to agree that a lot of people use that excuse to never ‘really’ forgive at all. Are you one of those people?
How To Overcome Vanity
Vanity- it’s easy to mask, easy to forget, and easy to justify. We hide it behind dignity and poise. The sins connected to this weakness aren't quite as severe as those associated with pride, gluttony, and lust. But it can eventually lead up to some serious problems. And it can keep us from becoming an instrument of Christ.
What To Do About Guilt

It concerns the Nazi occupation of Rome during WWII. I’d love to tell you about the ending of the movie, as it very much connects to this article. But I won’t because…well it would be like hearing the ending of Sixth Sense just before seeing it.
Using Your Talents for Christ
If you’re over thirty and a Christian, you may have begun to question your mission in life. It’s easy for some people. They seem to have their entire lives laid out for them. What they want to do, what they’re good at, what God’s plans are. We read the lives of the saints, and many of them seem to have direction from early childhood.
