A4P Guest: I am 18 years old and I am a Christian. I always pray for my future marriage and I want to get married at the age of 25. Do you think that is a bit too early to get married?
A4P: Why did you ask me?
A4P Guest: Because everybody who heard me say that rebuked me.
A4P Guest: Thank you for your recent YouTube video message. I have a question. I am married and have two kids (10 and 12). My husband and I, both of us are Christians, gave up on our marriage a long time ago, probably a couple years ago. He is sleeping in a different bedroom all these two years. So, as you can imagine, we have no communication whatsoever, I mean, healthy way like a husband and a wife. We always argue when it comes to picking up and dropping off kids at their school and activities. If you ask me why I am living with him, I will say, “For the sake of my kids!” I don’t want my kids to live without a father or a mother. So, even if we sleep in separate bedrooms, at least they see us both in the same house every day. Some people are advising me to divorce him because they see no benefit with my decision to stay with him. What do you say? Is divorce better, especially for my kids?
Marriage between one man and one woman is the story of God, not the story of man. It is very easy for us to forget this especially when we find ourselves in a marriage, in the middle of a conflict. Continue reading Divorce? Why?→
Sinful desires are printed on our DNA. That means we can’t run from them. Oops, what do we do then? We can live above them while they are hanging out with us.
A4P Guest: I’m a mother of three little kids (8, 6 and 5 years old). I’ve been married with my husband for the last 10 years. To make a long story short, I’m in hell. I’m crying right now. It is hard for me to write the condition I’m in. My husband doesn’t help me around the house. He doesn’t care about the kids. I do everything by myself. Continue reading Meaning of “Tough Love”→
It is natural for us to want to be “perfect” in everything.
I am not talking about “perfectionism” here but just a natural bent to desire to be found doing and saying the right thing all the time.
As a Christian, this desire gets intensified because we have that One that we want to please, other than ourselves. We want Jesus Christ to be proud of us, don’t we? Continue reading Very Embarrassing!→

But now I know that at least 10 of you are listening to me and reading what I am writing on the Appeal for Purity Facebook page/website. Continue reading You Are My Defender!→
If we understand “marriage vows” as death sentences which they are, whether you believe it or not, we would be better spouses to our husbands/wives.
The word of God says, “Husbands love your wives as Jesus loved the church.” And it doesn’t end there; it continues saying, “as Jesus died for her.” Ephesians 5:25 –
Thank You, LORD, for giving me another day to come to You in prayer. May Your Name be blessed forever!
I have received many good and perfect gifts from You, LORD. LORD Jesus, You died for me; so I might live for You. You became sin for me so I might be God’s righteousness. Thank You, LORD Jesus!
I also thank You for giving me a husband, with whom I am becoming one. I don’t deserve to have him as a husband but You gave him to me anyways. So, thank You.
