George Tyndall – My miraculous conversion- Part II
When I got up to return home, I pulled out a cigarette and lit it. I took 1-2 puffs of the cigarette when I heard the Lord speak to me saying “put out that cigarette”. I did not immediately obey His voice, but rather I began to argue with Him. I remember thinking that it

My husband’s conversion, by MaryLu Tyndall. Part II
One day, as I was heading to work, he wasn’t feeling well, and we chatted briefly. I don’t remember anything unusual happening, but my husband told me later that he had seen the love of God in my eyes-something he wanted. While at work, I felt led to send him an email. We had been

Guest Writers: MaryLu and George Tyndall

Free to Love, Despite the Circumstances
By Dineen A. Miller It was 2 a.m., and I was tired. What I’d thought would be a simple disagreement had turned into a two-hour discussion. Yet despite our attempts to find common ground, something we’d usually accomplished quite easily, my husband and I still hadn’t found a solution. I sensed something deeper stirring the

You are not alone My story Part VI
You are not alone I felt alone in my struggle in the early years. Attending church by my self was painful. Bitterness would rear its head on a Sunday morning when I left the house for church without my husband. Habitually, this feeling would erupt into a fight either before or after church. I also

Give your spouse over to Christ – My Story Part III
Control Freak? Who me? I was certain that it was entirely up to me to show this lost soul, I married, the way to salvation. What a blunder that way of thinking was. The day I finally gave my husband’s salvation over to Jesus and stopped trying to save him myself, is a day I
