Runaway People
Have you ever run away from home? When you were 5 or 6 years-old perhaps you were mad at your mom for making you clean your room, or maybe you were upset because of something your dad said.
Have you ever run away from home? When you were five or six years old perhaps you were mad at your mom for making you clean your room, or maybe you were upset because of something your dad said. You decided you didn't like your family anymore and threw some things in a bag and headed out the door. Maybe you made it to the end of the driveway, or even as far as a friend's backyard. But after a while you forgot why you were mad, got hungry and went home.

The Waiting Game
People don’t like to wait. If you don’t believe it, just try sitting at a traffic light for three seconds after the light has turned green. You could start a war!
People don’t like to wait. If you don’t believe it, just try sitting at a traffic light for three seconds after the light has turned green. You could start a war!
But waiting seems unavoidable. We wait in shopping lines, in doctor’s offices, in repair shops. On phone calls, we’re put on hold. I don’t know anyone who enjoys the waiting game.

Tired of listening to your parents harp on you about immodest dress? Guess what? The Bible has something to say about it, too, and it’s not just about your clothes! The same Greek word kosmios, is used to talk about dress...

Dating That Hurts
You finally land a date with the hottest guy in school. You go shopping for new jeans and those great looking canvas mesh shoes with the straps.

Smoking In the Family
My dad has been smoking for a long time. It really worries me. I'm afraid he might get cancer or something.
My dad has been smoking for a long time. It really worries me. I'm afraid he might get cancer or something. How can I help him? I know I can pray, but is there anything else I can do?
Pastor Steve Answers:
You're right on track. The most potent thing you can do is pray! When you pray it affects your dad, and it affects you, too. It also impacts the great unseen battle between Christ and Satan. When you pray you're talking to the God of the univer...
