“The UN’s special envoy on s*xual violence in conflict has reported ‘clear and convincing information’ that some women and children hostages held by Hamas had been subjected to r**e and s*xualised torture and that there were ‘reasonable grounds’ to believe such abuses were ‘ongoing’. The special envoy, Pramila Patten, also reported on Monday that there were ‘reasonable grounds’ to believe s*xual assaults including r**e and gang-r**e in several places took place during the 7 October attacks by Hamas.” - Guardian News, UK

Jesus was poor,
born under a foreign dictatorship,
a child at extreme risk.

But on the day of His birth,
a choir of countless angels sang,
“Glory to God in the highest;
and on earth, peace to people
with whom He is well pleased”
(Luke 2:14).

It is true:
Life is full of pain and misery.

But God sent Jesus
to bring peace on earth,
peace to humanity,
peace to you and your loved ones

It is true:
Life is full of pain and misery.

But you have to hold on to hope.
Embrace the hope of Christmas.
Embrace the hope of peace—
the peace that only Jesus
can give—
the peace that “transcends
all understanding”
(Philippians 4:7).

Being “Right” in Relationships - Christian Counseling & Educational Foundation

"Being right was a deceptive cover. It felt orthodox. It felt like I was standing for the truth. But it was my truth that concerned me... I did not love." https://www.ccef.org/resources/blog/being-right-in-relationships

I hate marital tension, especially during a night out or a vacation. I realize that no time is convenient for it, but still, I would prefer it didn’t intrude into times that are officially designated for rest and mutual enjoyment. My wife and I were on a short holiday at the beach. I was doing …

Looming Debate Over SSA

"Can we not affirm the person who struggles with homos*xual desires? We absolutely can, just as we can affirm all persons who struggle with sin tendencies (and that is all persons!). But normalizing the desire is no help to anyone. We call them to repent of the desire, including the prayerful pursuit of biblical norms and the wise avoidance of tempting circumstances. We recognize that while God will bless this pursuit in his own timing, he is certain to do so (if not sooner, then in heaven). Then we love them with insight and compassionate action, requiring nothing more than faith in Christ, while acknowledging that repentance from sin is integrally joined to that faith for every Christian."

These days, it seems that almost every week social media uncovers another eruption along the Presbyterian Church in America's (PCA) volcanic fault line between social accommodation/compassion and biblical obedience. This week, a conference promoting strategies to address same s*x attraction (SSA) ha...

An effortless way to improve your memory

"When trying to memorise new material, it’s easy to assume that the more work you put in, the better you will perform. Yet taking the occasional down time – to do literally nothing – may be exactly what you need. Just dim the lights, sit back, and enjoy 10-15 minutes of quiet contemplation, and you’ll find that your memory of the facts you have just learnt is far better than if you had attempted to use that moment more productively."

http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20180208-an-effortless-way-to-strengthen-your-memory

A surprisingly potent technique can boost your short and long-term recall – and it appears to help everyone from students to Alzheimer’s patients.
