Ten Tips for Dealing with Anger in Marriage
We may not like to talk about it, but if you’re married, you’ve been
there. How do we deal with our anger in marriage? How do we argue? How
do we reconcile? We all have different ways of handling our differences
with our spouse, but here are a few things I’ve learned over the 13
years I’ve been married to my husband.
1. Stop talking – wait till you can be reasonable and sincere
Before you say something you don’t mean, stop. You can’t take your
words back. You can ask forgiveness...

No Greater Love: 3 Heroes from Aurora
(As posted at Austin Catholic New Media:)
When I was sixteen, I had a boyfriend. My young heart was madly in
love. I had also spent some time reading the Bible, inspired by my
Baptist friends. One day, I came across this verse:
“No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” John 15:13
In a fit of romanticism, I wrote it out on a pretty piece of paper

And I Find Myself Smirking at God
.jpg)
Does your child ever do something so witty and surprising that you just shake your head and let a smirk creep across your face?
My son cracked out with a clever quip last week and I just burst out laughing. I don’t often burst out into anything.
I like that feeling.
Over the past few weeks I have found my self smirking at God. Shaking my head once again. Surprised at myself for being surprised....

"The farmer dude is awesome!" or, "Girls' Commentary on Emma, by Jane Austen"
My daughter had her birthday sleepover last night. We went swimming, out to eat, painted nails and watched a movie. The movie was the main event, anticipated greatly by at least one of us.
Me.
You see, this was the first time I allowed my daughter to experience Jane Austen. I have protected Jane from the offense of being read by to young-a-girl, of being blown off, misunderstood, or haphazardly...
