That question has echoed through the corridors of time for as long as we have roamed the planet. Even God’s children – who were in church every week – lamented how this cramped their style.
They asked, “When will the Sabbath be ended, that we may market our wheat?” (Amos 8:5).
You will never get ahead by leaving God behind. Embrace the Sabbath. Before you seek the things of God, surrender to the God of things.
Helen Keller has a unique way of saying things. She said, “As selfishness and complaint pervert the mind, so love with its joy clears and sharpens the vision.”
Mark and Beth Denison, married for 36 years, launched There’s Still Hope as a national movement to call men and women into lives of sexual integrity. Their ministry offers 90-day recovery plans for addicts and one-on-one and group coaching for addicts and their spouses. TSH also produces resources for pastors and churches to confront the porn epidemic that is destroying so many lives.
Dr. Denison was a senior pastor for over 30 years, NBA chaplain, and board chairman at Houston Baptist University three times. With a Master’s Degree in Addiction Recovery, Mark is a certified PSAP and active member of the American Association of Christian Counselors.
Mark has written four books on recovery: Porn in the Pew, 365 Days to Sexual Integrity, A 90-Day Recovery Guide, and 40 Days to Porn-Free Living. His latest book, Jesus on the 12 Steps, will be released later this year.
