Encouragement from the GQ team when God seems silent

November 13th, 2015
Kris Cadogan 20 hrs · Edited It seems that I have not been appointed to stay here with GQ ministries and that is okay, since it is God’s prerogative. I have had a wonderful 11 months here with all of you and I wish you continued success in your ministry. As for me, I truly believe God has abandoned me. It is not a sudden feeling, it gradually came on over the past 3 years.

Encouraging Testimonials from October 2015

November 2nd, 2015
From a site user: "I read your site's article about suicide while sitting here alone in front of my 9mm. Just a few moments earlier, I had finally come to closure with the intense struggle I've faced over the last year of wanting to end my life.

Prayer Requests – November 2015

November 2nd, 2015
1. Please pray for our sites to run smoothly and for people to be able to easily locate the information they need.

As you may know, depression often increases over holidays and during the winter. Please pray against the negative effects of depression for fellow writers and for questioners. Pray also for wisdom as we interact with people who are hurting. 3. Please pray for fellow volunteers to be uniquely encouraged . . .
