I heard it often in the middle of conflict casework – “Why should I forgive them – after what they have done?’ Good question to discuss – because it reveals a huge hurdle to people being reconciled to God (which is primary in the whole process) and then to others. It is where people get

Hi, Candy McCune here. Almost everyone around me these days feels they have too much to handle and not enough time. Our work no longer has clear boundaries, and it seems to never end. I love David Allen’s book “Getting Things Done”. He points out that the relative speed of changes in our cultures, lifestyles
I want to share a gift with you that I believe will be of real and ongoing value. It is especially helpful at the time of year when people make year-end resolutions. But in fact, it is valuable at any time. It was extremely helpful to me (and it was mid-year when I got
