Where do I find information about blended/step families?
I just got a pop-up ad when I went to the Focus website. It advertised something I wouldn’t expect Focus to support. Did Focus on the Family originate these ads? How can I stop the ads from popping up?

How do we explain God’s command to slaughter the Canaanites in the Old Testament? I’m a Christian, but I have serious issues with the doctrine of scriptural infallibility, especially where the Old Testament is concerned. I’m particularly disturbed by the accounts of divinely authorized genocide and “Holy War” recorded in Numbers, Deuteronomy, and Joshua. When …
What’s the difference between an “unbeliever” and a person who simply has honest questions about God? I believe in the Bible, and I have often told friends and family that God can do miracles and even raise the dead. Nevertheless, when things get tough, I find it hard to trust in the Lord. Though I …
Where does homemaking fit into the Bible’s teaching on work and labor? I’ve always been happy in my role as a stay-at-home wife and mother. Then I heard a series of messages about the role of productive labor in God’s plan for mankind. Since then I’ve been having doubts. I spend my time preparing meals, …
If God is fair, just, and loving, why is there so much suffering in the world? I want to believe in His goodness, but the injustices of life have convinced me that, if He does exist, He must not care very much about what goes on in this world. Just recently, my neighbor, a good …
If God is all-powerful and all-loving, why doesn’t He do something about the mess on earth? I used to consider myself a person of faith, but the hopeless and sad state of our suffering world has left me questioning whether God cares or even exists. Can you say anything to change my mind?
Why would God “choose” the Jewish People? I’ve tried to examine Christianity with an open mind and give the Bible a fair hearing. Quite frankly though, its whole foundational premise suggesting that the Jews are God’s chosen people seems to discredit the whole religion for me. I mean seriously; a book, written by Jews, claiming …
Does the Bible say anything about being vegetarian or vegan?
As an adopted kid, I can’t help wondering – why did my mom give me up? Why would any mom put her child up for adoption? I’ve been aware of the situation since I was small, and on the whole I’m very happy with my life, but I can’t get away from nagging thoughts and …
One of my best friends at school has been talking about taking her own life. What should I do?
Why do video games feature so many “tough” girls these days? I’m a teen girl who enjoys playing computer and video games, but I don’t think it’s realistic that there’s so many “tough,” heroic girls fighting with guys. I don’t believe that girls will ever be stronger or more powerful than guys in the physical …
How do we find the best possible care for our aging mother? In our quest for a workable plan, one of the options that has surfaced is “assisted living?” What exactly does this entail? What kind of service does it offer, and how do we select a good assisted living facility? We’d appreciate any advice …
How should I respond if someone sues me? In 1 Corinthians 1:1-11, Paul says that Christians shouldn’t bring lawsuits against one another. That makes perfect sense to me. I understand that brothers and sisters in Christ need to explore other, less adversarial ways of resolving their differences, and I don’t intend to sue anybody if …
