Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life. – Psalm 143:8 NIV
What do we often do with our raw emotions? We stuff, we explode, or react somewhere in between. Is it really possible to make emotions work for us instead of against us? Lysa TerKeurst’s answer is yes, and in her usual inspiring and practical way, Lysa shows you how. Filled with gut-honest examples and Biblical teaching, Unglued will equip you to know with confidence how to: 1) resolve conflict and find peace in your important relationships; 2) learn to be honest but kind when offended; 3) identify what type of reactor you are and how to significantly improve your communication; 4) respond with no regrets by managing your tendencies to stuff, explode or react somewhere in between, and much more. We hope you enjoy this first session of Unglued . Our goal in this study isn’t to be perfect. Our goal is to make imperfect progress. — Lysa TerKeurst Watch the Video May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in y...
“Let My people go,” demanded God through the lips of Moses and Aaron. “Why should I?” responded Pharaoh, behind whom stood the enemy of men’s souls. As soon as the demands were made, the situation worsened for the Israelites.

He said, Make the work harder for the people so that they keep working and pay no attention to lies. — Exodus 5:9 When we are trying to deliver people “out of Egypt,” it may seem at first as if things get worse. This can almost be a good sign for us when we are praying for loved ones, for as we come in prayer in the name of Jehovah God, seeking to demand that Pharaoh release the slaves he controls, we can expect him to do just what Pharaoh did and tighten his grip. Pharaoh and his army usually show up if we get serious about winning people to God’s cause. The Bible tells us not to be ignorant of the Devil’s devices (2 Corinth...
Isn’t this the carpenter? Isn’t this Mary’s son and the brother of James, Joseph, Judas and Simon? — Mark 6:3 Our tour group was gathered, as usual, on top of a mountain when Ray asked us a question: “How many of you know what Jesus and Joseph, His earthly father, did for a living before He began His ministry as a rabbi when He turned thirty?” Every one of us answered, “He was a carpenter.” Smug bunch we were, indeed. Then Ray again rocked our world by replying, “Actually, no. Jesus wasn’t a carpenter, although there is no doubt that he did work with wood at times, along with other items.” Now, at this point, I was wondering what I was doing on a mountaintop 5,710 miles away from home with a guy who obviously didn’t even know the basics of the Bible — with ten days of the tour to go! This was the moment my life changed. Ray explained, “The word translated ‘carpenter’ in Matthew 13:55 and Mark 6:3 for how Joseph and Jesus made a living is the Greek word tektōn . It means ‘buil...
