Every day, singles are faced with challenges and pressures that are unique to being single.

What are some of the unique pressures you face as a single person? Post your questions/comments relating to and affecting being single here.

Men are made to be protectors and a stabilizing force in our society and in our relationships. Sometimes the protector feels unprotected and the stabilizer feels unsteady and vulnerable, especially in the area of relationships. What areas of your relationship(s) cause you as a man to feel shaky and vulnerable? Post your questions/comments relating to men's issues here.

Women are complex individuals who often lead with their emotions when it comes to relationships. While emotions are a wonderful thing, making decisions that are based primarily on emotions can sometimes cause us to be left with shattered beliefs and damaged emotions. How can we help you to make better decisions in your relationships? Post your questions/comments relating to women's issues here.

Sexuality and sexual intimacy are gifts from God. Often, these gifts are distorted and used inappropriately causing us to struggle in the very areas that should be a blessing to us.

If you are less than a year away from marriage and less than 8 years into marriage, post your issues, concerns, and questions here.

The marital relationship should be a place where you feel safe and secure. But that is not always the case. Many marriages are drifting away from where they should be, and are headed for, or are already in, treacherous waters. How secure is your marriage? Whether you are newly married or a seasoned veteran, post your questions/comments relating to your marriage here.

We've been seeing more and more church-related issues being posted. Please post your questions/comments relating to church-related issues here.

Embracing your husband's call can sometimes leave you feeling isolated, alone, and abandoned. As a pastor's/minister's wife, you need a "safe place to bleed." Oftentimes, when a pastor's/minister's wife is hurting she may not be sure where to turn for support. If you are, or have been, a pastor's/minister's wife, feel free to post your questions/comments here.

Whether you have been abused or you are the abuser, abuse is a destructive cycle that is repeated if intervention is not sought. Many abused people follow a pattern of behavior that causes them to get involved in one abusive relationship after another. We want to help you break that abusive pattern. Post your questions/comments relating to issues of abuse here.

If you are willing to be transparent, others will be able to see through you to the other side of their struggle. If God has brought you out of the stormy deep in your relationship, reach back and help to pull someone else through the storm. Share your testimony.
