Am I gay? That is a question that every parent and church staff member needs to be able to answer. Living in a culture that applauds, elevates and takes pride in sin, we must know and model the truth for our kids. Few recognize this better than author Garry Ingraham and his wife Melissa. Having come out of sexual confusion, they founded the Love and Truth Network through which they work to restore people to sexual wholeness and biblical identity. Ingraham dives into what drove him to sexual confusion. His experience pinpoints the need for young men and women to receive direction, honesty and discipleship regarding biblical sexuality, both at home and from the church. Highlighting complete surrender to the Almighty, Ingraham found freedom from all that had bound him. Today, Ingraham witnesses the power of God, changing people, and establishing in them His identity and His purpose for them. Learn how to respond and how you can best shepherd the confused and the lost.

Some came home in pieces. Some never came home at all. But all fought for this nation, this freedom and this place we call home. They know the cost of service and sacrifice and Peter Palivos will not forget. Raised in a family with five generations of military service, Palivos has seen the brotherhood, hardship, and weight of war, but he also knows the battle doesn’t end when our troops come home. A renowned international attorney and philanthropist, Palivos channels his gratitude into the chairmanship of Voice of the Veterans, Vets Helping Vets and many educational initiatives. For a man of great vision and a greater God, it doesn’t take much to spawn an idea. This one began at a Raiders game; Palivos decided he needed the Allegiant Stadium for something. That “something” is a "Day of Gratitude on June 8th for 15,000 veterans, armed forces, and their families, presented by Voice of the Veteran, CityServe and ChurchLV. God calls us to be courageous. So strap on those boots and let’s see how God can use you.

Has your effectiveness ever felt compressed, buried under the weight of emotional burden? Diamonds are rare from the Middle East but Tessa Afshar is one of them. A researcher of Biblical history with a Master of Divinity from Yale and an award-winning author, Afshar speaks like one who has probed the Word of God and unearthed the precious. Raised as a nominal Muslim, Afshar thought all religions were the same until one night, in a dream, when Jesus beckoned her to follow Him. Her story is fascinating, but it is her internal struggle with discouragement and anxiety that will keep you riveted. Having experienced abandonment as a teenager and a broken marriage in her early twenties, Afshar found herself dealing with compounded discouragement, not a sinful feeling but one she describes as ‘sin-adjacent’ to self-pity and discontent. Opening the door to those, she soon found herself unable to pray, sleep or function at work, but there were answers. If you are experiencing debilitating anxiety, or know someone who is, you will be encouraged as you discover the gems Afshar found through her journey.
