When we say the unbelieving wife/husband is sanctified by the believers salvation and faith,what exactly does that mean?

Hey Joe, Like the other posts here I will lay out a disclaimer that I am only a man, one with a highly defective mind that is prone to false realizations. From scripture I understand there to be ... Continue

(duh) Porn makes you selfish and impatient!

I find that using makes me begin treating people like objects rather than as people. I want what I want from them and I am used to getting what I want because I just used something else to get exac... Continue

Good Churches?

Hey Barry, I am with you on the feeling that I'm going to be found out on this site. I toyed with the idea of using a pseudonym of some sort, changing my location, etc. I keep coming back to the f... Continue

The first meeting of Treasure Hunters!

Well... not to go too far into this, but we had our first meeting yesterday of the not-quite-Samson Society-formatted meeting of men. Four other men were there and it went off a bit awkwardly, but I believe that God will use my willingness to be vulnerable and share of my worries, fears and struggles with other men for His glory. I had to let silent, awkward moments just be silent and awkward. I had to gauge how much to disclose and how much to keep for later. We all left feeling much lighter in… Continue

Overwhelmed

I am at a very strange point (just having started over again last week) where I want to do so much, but only have the power to do things right now. It struck me yesterday that sin is so immediately gratifying; looking at pictures, eating too much, having a drink... all of it makes me feel good RIGHT NOW. In trying to keep my focus on God and His plan for me, all of the gratification is delayed... and I guess that I'm not used to delayed gratification. My mind is in a whirl with al… Continue

Getting started...

So I broke down and shared my brokenness with a friend last week. I was nearly desparate as I dialed his number. I was terrified that he would answer and I would have to tell him how self-insufficient I am; and equally terrified that he wouldn't answer and I would have to leave some lame, "Just seeing how everything's going!" voicemail then go back to being miserable and alone. I had left a post in the main discussion forum asking about getting started among a group of my wife's lifelong friends… Continue

I see that you left a comment on my blog last week. Thank you for sharing. Being SWN can be a burden, but mainly it is an encouragement, and my greatest struggle in all of this is that I forget that I am SWN. When the Father reminds me, it is an encouragement that leads me to victory. It should be an encouragement to you as well, God gave me the name because He knew that I needed that encouragement, but remember, anyone one of us that seeks the LORD is SWN! Stay strong brother!
