You may have heard the phrase, “hurting people hurt people.” There is so much brokenness in this world, and so many hurting people today. It is well known that those who have been emotionally damaged tend to inflict their hurt on others. People who have suffered abuse, at times, become abusers themselves. Those who have suffered under an alcoholic parent often cause their future family to suffer because they become alcoholics.

My work has taken me through Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas, and whenever I spot a train, I make it a point to pull over and get a shot.

From Conflict to Connection: Navigating Anger with Love and Clarity

Understanding Anger Uncontrolled, persistent anger will ultimately damage your precious relationships. To truly change the negative outcomes (the fruit), we must address the underlying causes (the root). The journey to managing anger begins with humility—simply asking for help when we need it. As James 4:10 reminds us, "Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up," and James 5:16 encourages us to "confess your trespasses to one another... that you may be healed" (NKJV).

The landscape was stark, filled with brush, rocks, and miles of sand—an entirely different scene from the scenic vistas along the Pacific Ocean. A friend on Facebook once commented on how lucky I was to be in such a beautiful place, and I responded rather negatively. I found it hard to see any beauty in the vast expanse of the California desert.

Lost But Not Alone: A Journey Through Pain That Led Me Back to God

Written by Ken Hulsey  A relationship with God can be an amazing journey filled with incredible experiences. However, it can also involve hardships and trials meant to foster spiritual growth. I took the image above back in 2011, and it’s hard to believe that it's been 15 years since then. I snapped it with my phone while crossing over the 405 Freeway in Irvine on my journey home from work. At that time, I was working the late shift at a nearby environmental laboratory and didn’t have a car, so I walked everywhere I needed to go.

Can We Educate Ourselves Out of This Chaos? Written By Ken Hulsey Lately, I've been questioning the collective intelligence of the human race.
