Case 609
During my life I have seen so many human errors that I no longer have faith in humanity. Yes, I believe in Jesus Christ as my Savior and I’m willing to do everything I should in order to follow His will. However, I know I’m not perfect either and that I have my own faults, which I ask God to forgive me every time I pray. I really like to read the Bible, but I [...]
Case 608
I am nineteen years old. A few years ago, I met a man on Facebook.... At that time, I was communicating, not only with him, but with many other men too. I went out with them, got their hopes up, lied to them, and used them.... I made the decision to leave my family (lying to them that I was going to study and work) so that I could be with this man.... Now that [...]
Case 607
I met my wife twelve years ago. She had a seven-month-old daughter. The biological father of her daughter had abandoned them.... He had even told my wife, when she was pregnant, that she would have to abort the baby if she wanted to stay with him. I came into her life and offered my help. Today we have three more children. The biological father reappeared, and my wife has now been seeing him for almost [...]
Case 606
I am a follower of Christ, but I married someone with different religious beliefs. We have been married for five years and have a daughter. My husband is an alcoholic.... A year ago, he had a car accident in which a cousin of his died, and we are involved in a lawsuit brought by the boy’s mother. I have had to take all the financial responsibility for the accident. I see my husband getting more [...]
Case 605
I met a girl, we started dating, and she became my girlfriend. After about a year, I realized that my feelings had changed toward her, so I told her that I didn’t love her and that we should break up. But she refused, and I gave in because I didn’t want to see her suffer either. Two years have gone by like this and I’m still not in love with her, but I haven’t been [...]
Case 604
I am a thirty-two-year-old woman, and I have been in a very bad relationship for four years. I am a sex worker, and the man I live with allows it. He has taken my money many times. He manipulates me, insults me... and has hit me. I am so codependent that I have even gotten on my knees and begged him not to leave me.... Several times he has told me that he wants to [...]
Case 603
I have sinned. I have touched my eleven-year-old daughter’s body in an inappropriate manner. I feel very sorry and I don’t want to do it again, but I feel like a slave to my desires and I don’t know how to stop. I need help because my mind even fixates on having intimate relations with her. I have considered turning myself in to the police so my daughter will not be harmed, and have even [...]
Case 602
Recently my husband discovered that our eleven-year-old daughter has seen pornographic images on the Internet. When we asked her about it, she said that her friends were talking about it, so she was curious and searched for it online. We had already talked to her about the changes in her body and that kind of thing, and we think that we have given her the confidence to talk to us about that subject. We have [...]
