How bad can it get?

It sickened me to think that amid the pain in Haiti, there are people lurking to sell and exploit vulnerable people. Understanding what human trafficking is and how it happens is our feature this week. Regular viewers may notice it is a rerun at this timely moment, in part to publicize that on Jan 30th and Feb. 1 we are hosting two forum’s on Human Trafficking as part of our education campaign on this need.

Get Ready to Care

How can we make this easier?

I am a story and dialogue junkie, and this week even I was filled to the brim. Filled not only with facts, feelings, dilemmas, problems, and differences, but hope.

"There is no turning back, right?"

Dominatrix Teri Jean Bedford could change the future of Canada. Her quote in my title above has stuck with me.

Racing Through Sin

Since God tells us He will direct our paths, sometimes those distractions that come during quiet time with God should be jotted down so we can remember them when we get back on the work and home path. Jot down the practical distractions, then get back to inner reflection, listening to what is in your soul.

That was worth doing!

I finished my Bachelor of Religious Education at Tyndale University this week. Isn't that amazing? Squeezed in a wonderful degree amid the crazy life of Listen Up TV, every Thursday night, four hours long and then the homework. Why?
