  • Things That Make You Go Shhhhhh……

    shhhhh

     

    Last week I was honored to be a panel speaker on “Things that make you Go Shhhhh”…, a talk show and brain child of Miriam Holt, founder of A Sister’s Heart Ministry.

    What are “Things that make you go shhhhhh?”

    Those are issues people would rather not deal with. When they happen,little is said. It’s similar to how Wikepedia describes “Elephant in The Room.”

    Elephant in the room” is an English idiom for an obvious truth that is being ignored or goes unaddressed. The idiomatic expression also applies to an obvious problem or risk no one wants to discuss. – Wikipedia

    These things are shameful,embarrasing and just plain uncomfortable to talk about.

    My topic was Adultery and the discussion was centered around my book, “So He Cheated, Now What?‘ The conversation was real, relevant and raw. During the conversation I was led to share things that are not inside the book, things that are personal but need to be shared in order to help myself and others heal. Adultery is something swept under the rug and very tough topic to talk about,if you are currently a victim. Some even have the mindset, ” It happened, now get over it.” That is easier said than done. With time, communication and much prayer it can be done. I am a witness.

    The talk show host was the lovely Becky McCadden.Things that make you go shhhhh will be produced live bi-monthly at the Life Center in Chesapeake ,Virginia. You can be apart of the next live studio audience  in November.

  • Deal With It !

    Relationship crisis

     

    That seems a bit harsh, huh?
    I’m really not that insensitive.
    Almost everyday I hear from women that are dealing with the reality of a cheating spouse.

    I understand that it seems like a terrible nightmare and you just want to WAKE UP!
    The pain seems unreal and panic and anxiety have moved in.

    The cheating spouse says ” Get Over It, what’s done is done, let’s just move on.”  Trust me, it’s not that easy. The who,what,why’s and when’s seem to chase you day and night.

    You have unanswered questions. You just can’t ” GET OVER IT! “

    Too often, we want to sweep things under the rug and think they will go away.We don’t want to face the truth or talk about things that will upset us.

    Please keep this in mind – Whatever you don’t deal with , will deal with you. In one way or another, it will resurface.I say put all the cards on the table. Talk about what happened and why it happened. That is the only way to move forward.

    Don’t act like it never happened. How can you ever be healed?
    Just deal with it and let the healing begin. ( it may sting at first, but the sting will go away )

    Praying for you !

  • He Cheated, So Now What ??

    This weekend I had the privilege of going to see Why Did I Get Married Too by Tyler Perry.

    In the movie ” Pat” ( Janet Jackson ) was a successful author of the book, ” He Cheated, So Now What?”

    In reality a very similar title, ” So He Cheated, Now What?” is written by Nicole Cleveland.

    Pam Perry of Ministry Marketing Solutions and Christian book promotion expert says

    “Wow. Nicole went through and came out on the other side – and now has turned her ‘scars’ into ‘stars. ‘So He Cheated, Now What?’ will make you breathe again because restoration is possible – with God” – Pam Perry, Ministry Marketing Solutions Inc www.MinistryMarketingSolutions.com

    “So He Cheated, Now What” is a guide to overcoming an affair in your relationship / marriage.

    Pat ( Janet Jackson ) provides tips to trusting your spouse that brings some interesting dialogue amongst the characters in the movie, especially Angela, ( Tasha Smith ).

    “So He Cheated, Now What” by Nicole Cleveland offers steps to healing and restoration after an affair.

    “Taking my husband back was the easy part. Rebuilding trust after the affair was the hard part.” says Cleveland.

    This book is written to help women rebuild the love and trust. Real, raw emotions are revealed in “So He Cheated, Now What?”

    Why did I stay?

    Will I ever trust him again?

    Will I ever stop crying?

    What’s wrong with me?

    Was it my fault?
    Purchase the book and share with a friend, sister or co-worker.
