Question: I have some problems with soaking. First of all, what is it exactly? Why would I want to do it, and how do you? I don’t even know how to slow down to receive from God, I just fall asleep! So for me soaking seems like a distant impossibility and doesn't even really make sense. Can you help?

Question: How do I handle my sexuality? It is such an intense, persistent and driving force. I battle with pornography. How do I tame this monster within me? I see so many people and even Christian leaders fall, and I don't want to fall. I want this to work! I feel trapped and no-one is preaching a sermon on how to handle this. So I grit my teeth, try my hardest, and fail over and over again, and then get consumed with shame. Can you help me? Have you found any answers that work?
I sent my daughter, Charity, an email with some of my initial research on compassion. I wondered how it is different from love, as these are two distinct words in the Greek New Testament. I included several definitions from the Greek, but it still wasn’t really clear. Below is some of the awesome revelation she shared with me on her understanding of love vs. compassion. Looks like the surf’s up!
“When He went ashore, He saw a large crowd, and felt compassion
for them and healed their sick.” (Matt. 14:14 NASB)
Do you want your kids on fire for God? If so, bring them to this week-long camp June 22-27 in Tennessee! At this "Mountain Movers" camp, not only will the kids be drawn into intimacy with the Holy Spirit, where they hear His voice and experience His manifest presence (and more), but there are even sessions for the parents as well.
Question: As I counseled a troubled girl after one of my classes, her tearful passionate question was, "Why did my mom die last year of cancer? My mom believed with all her heart for a miracle of healing. There were prophecies by several recognized prophets who said she would be healed, and yet she died. I don’t know why. I need an answer!"
Do I even need to consume a daily multivitamin?
According to Taber's Medical Dictionary, vitamins are essential for normal metabolism, growth and life of the body (page 2000). They are indispensable for the maintenance of health. There has been some controversy regarding the necessity to supplement vitamins back into the diet. The Journal of American Medical Association concluded from a study that every individual should take a multivitamin every day, thus ending that controversy (view article here).

I tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. The thought kept going through my mind: “What if I died tonight? I’m not ready to go to heaven.” Since I could not shake the thought, I got up, went downstairs and waited for my parents to come home from their meeting. When they did, I announced that I wanted to get saved, and they took me straightway to the pastor’s home where he explained the plan of salvation and led me in the sinner’s prayer. I was 15 years old when I accepted Jesus Christ into my heart as my Lord and Savior.
Lord, what about my digestion issues? Mark, it is a result of your “Type A” behavior and attitudes. You do everything fast. You eat fast, sleep fast, work fast, play fast, push hard at all times. You want to redeem the time, be the first, and be on top. That is fine as long as it is not the number one drive of your life. Living in peace and flow with Me MUST come before being fast and first. Otherwise the imbalance in your soul produces an imbalance in your body and your digestion is off.
