We mirror God's mercy to us when we forgive another.

Positive reinforcement changes behavior for the better, while criticism stabilizes negative behaviors and blocks change.

Truth matters. Everything we can do to find, feed, and strengthen it is worth the effort.

Out-of-whack emotions are always a good beginning point for identifying beliefs that aren't really true, an easy red flag for our inquiry. Exaggerated emotions of anxiety or discouragement invite us to trace them back to the thoughts that are creating them.

We mirror God's mercy to us when we forgive another.

Forgiveness is possible even when there is no restitution, no remorse on the part of the perpetrator.

When we have been hurt, slighted, or wounded unfairly, we are not left alone to bear it. We can get on our knees and ask for the Lord's help to forgive.
