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...
In a world quick to condemn, criticize, and overreact, be quick to be kind. The summer before I started middle school, I gained a lot of weight and developed unsightly stretch marks on my thighs. I was ashamed. While my parents worked during the day, my older sister took me to the neighborhood pool. I braced myself when I walked out of the changing stall. My sister never said one word about my body. She only said, “I love your bathing suit!” I remember as if it were yesterday. It meant everything that she managed to think of one nice thing when she could have said something cruel or nothing at all.

Although my sister was very smart, and had long, beautiful hair and good conversation skills, I realized that anyone could be that person — the person who thinks of one nice thing when no one...
“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. Pharaoh tightened his grip on them and told the taskmasters to make the Israelite slaves’ lives even more miserable than before. 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...
