Before she was even a teen, Chelsea had a cell phone. She also soon had her own room complete with a smart TV and her choice of streaming services. By the time she was a young teen, she had all the glam girl trappings like artificial tans and salon treatments that made her look much older than she was. By the time Chelsea was 14, a new car sat in the driveway, just waiting for her to get her driving permit. So by the time she was 15, Chelsea pretty much had it all and was...
Let me tell you something, I was down and out awhile ago. No money for wants, let alone for basic necessities. So I prayed to God, pouring out my heart. And He provided me with $10 from my cousin and $40 from my little brother! I am so thankful and I praise God for this glorious Blessing! I know without a doubt, that if I had not prayed to God, I would have not gotten any help. -T. C....
I've been intrigued by the story of a Rocky Mountain Cree of the mid 1800s, a chief named Maskepetoon. Told by many, his story has become a mix of myth, legend and truth. However, all sources bear common denominators that follow the common thread of peacemaking. Maskepetoon, a renowned warrior who came to Faith in Jesus, found out that personal peace would only come when it was partnered with forgiveness. His only son had been murdered by a companion, and Maskepetoon, faced...
I am 36 years old, incarcerated at the South Dakota Women's Prison. I am serving a 10 year sentence at 40%. I have two years left before I am released on parole. I have lived a life of self-destruction, sin and chaos; however my life has not always been so corrupt. I was raised by my grandmother in a God-loving home, attending church at the Lakota Wesleyan chapel on the reservation. I had a good upbringing. In my teens, I rebelled against my family and society falling into a...
Last month, I read a lot of news stories about the Canadian government's most recent attempts to somehow bring justice and comfort to those who suffered in residential schools. And my heart cried. I also read stories on the anniversary of Standing Rock. I read once again the recap of the rubber bullets and hypothermia suffered by those who were sprayed with cold water in the freezing weather. And to add insult to injury, I read the investigative report of how people gave $1.4...
Since last fall, North America has been shocked by revelations of sexual sins of Hollywood bosses, comedians, and politicians. Recently, almost every day, women and a few men have come forward to accuse the rich, famous and powerful of their carnal wrongdoings. In responding to the accusations against her friend and co-host, Charlie Rose, Gayle King requested that men come forward in the fight against sexual harassment and sexual abuse, especially against girls and women. Well, I want to be one of those men who will come...
"Hey, there. How are you doing?” As my former co-worker walked up, I smiled, ready for a good chat. But after a while, the conversation went there. He started talking about the charismatic, but truly evil person we had both worked for. This boss was the first person I’d ever known who actually plotted to emotionally hurt people and try to destroy their jobs (telling me they deserved it). I had been naïve and trusting…and I had ended up burned badly with my professional confidence shaken and my trusting heart shatte...
