In my work as a Christian newspaper publisher, radio commentator at TV host, I often have people contact me requesting prayer and counseling. Most all who come for prayer and counsel are Christians.  They come in various stages of spiritual maturity.  Some are baby Christians, some have been following the Lord for years, and the vast majority of requests I get are for those in troubled marriages and families.  So today, I’d like to talk about marriage and family, and I hope and pray you’ll hear and understand what I have to say and put my advice into action.

It’s no secret that the enemy of our souls has been working hard to destroy the natural family — one man, united in the bonds of Holy Matrimony to one woman, both faithful to one another and raising Godly children in the fear and admonition of the Lord.  Today, God’s natural design for the family is under intense assault on every level.  Satan uses a “divide and conquer” strategy to destroy the family, by getting us to focus on ourselves, rather than on serving those we love.
