I was never sexually attracted to E, something he was aware of because he seemed to be very attracted to me. E needed to remedy that, so that he could feel like I wanted him. His method was to shame me. It started with shaming me for having adult toys. He did such a good…

Mending my relationships was difficult. I’d been hurting my family for so long, and I had no idea how to tell them why this time was different. I felt ashamed for allowing E to control me, ashamed for the abuse I suffered at his hands, ashamed that I didn’t talk to them, didn’t share with…

My family, and my husband, M, harbor hurt for me not telling them what was going on. I’m not sure I’ve ever been able to vocalize the reasoning. I’m willing to bet there are others like me out there, and I want you to be able to learn something from me, and not make my…

He knew where I was. Not only did E know where to find me, he was relentless in his emails. His plan of attack was to fake love for me. He would email me promises of letting me keep my own money. He would find a way to take care of me. I could even…

Making the overwhelming journey of rebuilding myself a more positive experience was my goal.

Christians are supposed to be Christ-like. We have all seen…

Imagine being a young virgin woman, engaged to a young man, and you become pregnant. Your story only gets crazier, because it involves an angel coming down to tell you that you will become pregnant with the Son of God. It’s a supernatural conception. Welcome to Mary’s story. Who was Mary, that God chose her…

1 Corinthians 13:13 says ‘And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love’. You see, love is life. Love is everything. When you love someone, they become more important to you than yourself. You find yourself doing things you hate, because you love the person you are doing…

When I think about love never failing, I think of God’s love. As humans, we are imperfect, and because of that we fail, even unintentionally. God is perfect, and His love is an unfailing love. I spent decades feeling like God had failed me. In the midst of agony, I felt alone, and couldn’t feel…
