Meyer was born in the O’Fallon neighborhood in north St. Louis in 1943, and still speaks with a working-class St. Louis accent. Her father went into the Army to fight in World War II soon after she was born. Meyer has said in interviews that he began molesting her upon his return. She often talks about her experience in her meetings.[1]
A graduate of O’Fallon Technical High School in St. Louis, she married a part-time car salesman shortly after her senior year of high school. The marriage lasted five years. She maintains that he frequently cheated on her and persuaded her to steal payroll checks from her employer. They used the money to go on a vacation to California; she claims to have returned the money years later.[1] After her divorce, Meyer frequented local bars before meeting Dave Meyer, an engineering draftsman. They celebrated their 40th anniversary in 2007. Read the rest of this entry »

Even though Joseph was an extremely successful man, he named his firstborn Manasseh because God had made him forget, Genesis 41:52 and he named his second son Ephraim because God had made him fruitful in the land of suffering.

While the United States collectively experienced the terrorist attacks of last September 11, some of us quietly face our own terrors, such as I did several months ago when a specialist diagnosed my symptoms as Parkinson’s disease. (Later the diagnosis was proved wrong.) She assured me that medication would relieve my symptoms for five years, but after that I could expect my organs to break down gradually and finally fail.
Micah, a representative from God’s heavenly throne to Earth, has a message for people facing terrors. Unfortunately, most Christians have never heard Micah’s 19 sermons—sermons that could give us insight into our fears and help to relieve them.
Micah preached during and for times of terror. According to the book’s superscription,(1) Micah delivered his sermons while the feared Assyrians, noted for spreading terror, gradually engulfed the entire Middle East until only Mount Zion survived. Read the rest of this entry »

My parents are against my marriage. They say that my fiancèe is inferior to me in culture and education. I will leave my plans to please my parents?
Who is going away to marry you are you and not its parents. Nevertheless, although the decision depends on you, the opinion of its parents is of supreme importance. When you make the decision, the responsibility will be entirely hers. But the advice of his parents is very valuable because he is based on experience, the one that gives to wisdom and intuition generally. Read the rest of this entry »
