Dear Melissa...
Are any of you old enough to recall the "Dear Abby" column that was published in the newspaper?  (Yes, I'm old enough!)  Pauline Phillips wrote under the pen name, Abigail Van Buren, and she delivered what most considered to be "sound, compassionate advice" in her "Dear Abby" column. Here, I hope to do the same--only having that sound, compassionate advice to be rooted in Scripture.  

Do you have a question you'd like to submit for me to answer here on my blog?  My heart is to help you by pointing you to the Word of God.  And if there is EVER a question I do not feel I can sufficiently and Scripturally answer, I will, with your permission, ask a pastor to help me answer it. The goal here is not for you to hear MY words, but to hear THE Word, so that you can live by it!  (Matthew 4:4)

Submit your question below.  By submitting your contact information, you agree to be added to our email and/or text communications, through which my "Dear Melissa" posts will be published.  
What is your question?*
Are there any background details we would want or need to know before answering? (OPTIONAL)
If Melissa feels unable to answer on her own, do you give her permission to share your question with an even older woman OR with a qualified pastor to receive help answering?*
Would you like to be contacted directly about your question (in addition to having it published)? If yes, please enter the contact info of your preferred method. (Email or Text)
