I know that God and prayer shouldn’t just be something we throw into our schedule for a few minutes, but at school this doesn’t really seem to be working out because of all we have to do.  How do we make it work? Finding the time to devote to our relationship with the Lord, and specifically prayer, is always difficult.  It is so easy to think that at another time in life, it will be easier, but to be honest, it is not. At your age, the challenges are school and friends.  In a few years, it might be internships…

Should you still be friends with someone who negatively influences you?

Should you still be friends with someone who negatively influences you? You will not like my answer to this question. It is: no. Before I go on, I want to add some caveats. I do not mean that you completely cut the person off and ignore them as if they do not exist. I also do not mean to imply that someone who is a bad influence is a lost cause and can never change.

…I have a friend who has been physically and emotionally abused. He is an atheist because he says that God left him all those times he was being abused.

It may be true that one does not like that person, that the person did something annoying or stupid, and it may feel good to “vent your frustration” about it. But as Christians, there is a better way. Luke 6:27-28 “But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.” How can we possibly love our “enemies”?  Only through prayer.…

What do you do with family members (especially siblings) that are outspoken non-believers?

What do you do with family members (especially siblings) that are outspoken non-believers? It is such a struggle to not be able to share our love for the Lord with our siblings. For each Believer there is a deep desire is to be able to be sisters and brothers in Christ with our siblings. However, as much as we want this to be our reality, the salvation of our loved ones is in God’s hands and not ours. So how can we go on in our relationship with the freedom to express ourselves without being offensive, and still striving to…
