Question: Please help! I have a very difficult time believing that God loves me and that He’s not distant and wanting to punish me. I’m desperate for Him to change me into someone who truly lives as His child. I can’t do it on my own and I need Him, but I’m scared that He…

Question: Is it a sin to want to die? Answer: There have been people in the past who because of depression expressed their desire to not continue life. Job rue the day he was born, “Why did I not die at birth? Why did I not perish when I came from the womb?” (Job 3:11).…

Question: Would you mind giving me some ideas about methods for dealing with stress? Answer: This would be a good topic to dig deeper into, but I don’t want you to wait for me to get something done. I have a good friend, Pat Gates, who has written a good bit about this. She has…
