Got a Messy Question?

Thoughtful Answers Where Truth and Grace Intersect


Inspired by the classic ‘Dear Abby’ column, ‘Dear Ellen’ offers a compassionate space for individuals to seek advice on faith, relationships, and personal growth. Ellen offers thoughtful, compassionate answers, rooted in her unique “Messy Middle” approach—a balance between love and righteousness.

At Heart Set Above, we understand that not every question has a simple, black-and-white answer. Many of life’s most significant challenges call for deep reflection, applying biblical principles to today’s complexities, and cultivating a clear conscience before God. 

Whether the question involves faith-based dilemmas, LGBTQ+ topics, therapy, communication tips, or relational challenges, Ellen strives to provide practical, grace-filled responses to help individuals navigate life’s toughest issues.

Submit your question below and Ellen will respond with care, offering wisdom to help you find clarity, peace, and direction.

Important Notice: All question submissions will remain anonymous. Due to the volume of submissions, not every question can be addressed. Selected questions will be chosen randomly. Some will be answered in writing, anonymized, and posted here, while others may be featured on the Heart Set Above podcast for a more in-depth discussion—always anonymously.
