Case 881
I’ve been divorced for ten years. I was left with three daughters, whom I raised with great dedication and effort, taking them to church ever since they were little.... Three years ago, my oldest daughter earned a scholarship to study in a city far from me. I’ve supported her in everything, and she’s done very well in her studies. Three months ago, she wrote to me and told me she has a boyfriend. But now [...]
Case 880

Dear Friend, The large amount of money that you have spent on pornography may seem like the most destructive consequence of your addiction. [...]

I’ve been living with my partner for over two years, after almost four years of being in a relationship.

I have a deep sense of guilt and feel unworthy of going to church or even saying that I am a [...]
Case 875
My wife doesn’t tolerate much affection from me. However, I love being with her and our two daughters.... Personally, I deeply value being intimate with my wife, but she is almost always tired, has a headache, or simply tells me that I need to wait.... I’m a follower of Christ, and I love my wife.... But I feel like I’m giving more in the relationship than I’m receiving. For example, she usually goes out with [...]
Case 874
For the past five months, I’ve been getting to know a woman who shares my faith.... Her mother, however, who does not yet know me, speaks of me in a condescending way.... The daughter hasn’t been able to maintain a relationship with anyone because her mother always interferes and even wants to decide whom she’s going to marry. We’re thinking that if the friendship continues this way, we could consider a courtship, but we’re afraid [...]
