Time for email.

You ready?

Go for it.

OK, this is Charles, who says, I just

got honorably discharged from the army after 12 years.

My wife left me after over eight years of marriage--

committing adultery, getting pregnant,

and moving our six year old son in with her and this man.

They justify this with my past anger

issues, which I got help for.

Now they take my son to church with them.

I've received a word from God about our marriage

being restored on more than one occasion, and have been fasting

and praying for months, still supporting our son and her.

My son's stands in faith with me and detests this guy.

What can I do?

I'm not sure you've heard from God about this--

your wife is not exactly, you know, a model of fidelity.

She's committed adultery, and they're

living with another guy.

But what I do think you deserve is visitation

rights with your child.

So you ought to bring that the court

and get legal concern and control over your son.

But beyond that, I think you ought to let her go.

I think she's, you know-- of course,

the Bible has an example of somebody

who had a wife who was in prostitution,

and he kept taking her back.

And so you could tell your wife, you know, I'll take you back,

but I'm not going to give you but one chance, and this is it.

And if she doesn't want to do it, well, that's all right.

OK.

This is trinity, who says, I'm an 11 year old

who screams at my parents.

I want to be a good kid.

I just feel violent sometimes.

I try to harm myself.

I need some help.

Can you pray for me, and what can I do?

Well, I think what you need to do,

frankly, is to ask your parents-- you've

got a condition that probably takes

a psychiatrist with knowledge of hormones, and so forth.

Your hormones are raging, they're out of control.

As you get older, things might settle down,

but I know you don't know what to do,

because you're out of control.

And I'm surprised your parents already haven't

gotten professional help.

Of course, the big thing now, they just slip a kid Ritalin

and quiet him down, and that's not what you need to do.

But it isn't just emotional that's wrong.

There's a-- your whole mental and physiological system is out

of control, and you need help professionally.

Of course we'll pray with you, but I

do think you need to-- and any parents listening to me,

a Christian psychiatrist who is well versed

in pharmacology to get this thing under control.

All right.

OK, this is Jean, who says, is it OK as a Christian

to sue a doctor for medical malpractice

if a life has been majorly altered?

The answer is yes, and I'll tell you why.

These doctors all have malpractice insurance,

and the insurance is set up for people

who doctors injure, by mistake or what have you.

So the idea of suing, what'll happen

is the insurance company will write a check,

and it will help.

So I mean, that's part of our system,

and I don't think there's anything wrong.

Just don't have hatred in your heart against the doctor.

OK, this is Tori, who says, I'm scared to walk out

of my bedroom.

I always feel like I'm being watched.

Is there any way I can get that thought out of my head?

I want to feel safe.

Perfect love, cast out fear.

Fear is torment.

You need to get wrapped up in the love of God,

and you need to get into the presence of God,

and stop thinking about yourself.

You obviously are thinking about yourself.

You're afraid that something is going to happen to you.

So if you focus on Jesus and say, I'm going to focus on Him

and praise Him, I'm gonna receive the answer.
