Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it." (Matthew 7:13,14).
, "That is why I am suffering as I am. Yet I am not ashamed, because I know whom I have believed, and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him for that day" (2 Timothy 1:12) and "I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes" (Romans 1:16).

I would appreciate your prayers for my mother, Mary Ellen, as she is ill
and in the hospital in Dallas. I've gone to visit her, which means
instead up updating Signs of a Struggle this week, I chose one of my
favorite chapters from my new book, Surviving Sexual Brokenness: What
Grace Can Do.
The chapter is called "The Consequences of Careless Compassion," and here's a paragraph from it. I hope you will click the link and read the whole chapter:
Compassion is a gift from God that we can corrupt like everything else
He gives us. Oh . . . but when it is presented in its perfect form,
what healing takes place, what joy abounds, what grace flows and what
beauty springs forth from the dry desert, shocking those who view it,
like a brilliant and seemingly fragile butterfly that pauses on a
morning glory. Imagine, that little fluttering thing that looks like
tissue paper in flight can cross the continent and return again. It
looks weak, but it is strong because it has learned to manage the
currents and soar.
