Written by Debi Pearl A wise woman doesn’t take anything for granted. She is thankful to be loved and seeks to make herself more lovely. A wise woman doesn’t allow herself to be a liability but strives to be an asset to the marriage bond. She looks for ways to make, save, and use money wisely. Her husband knows he is a richer man because she is his wife. A wise woman seeks to be a part of her husband’s…
This is one of the best sermons on biblical womanhood I have ever heard preached by Pastor Rick Appleton in December 2025. What I am going to share isn’t taught by many, sadly. “The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things. That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, to be discreet, chaste, keepers…
A young woman asked me to write a post about single moms living for God and whether they can be remarried. First of all, it depends on why she is single. Did her husband die? If so, these are God’s instructions to her: “I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully” (1 Timothy 5:14). Here are her instructions if, for some reason, she left her husband:…
When I was growing up, my parents fought often. I was close to my mom. She would talk badly about my dad to me. (She profusely apologized in her old age and was so deeply saddened that she did that.) So, I grew up not liking my dad much. I was critical of him. He was an only child who was pampered. (He just told me that yesterday!) He was a loner. He didn’t talk to us much growing up….
“What does the Old Testament say about this? What does the Law say about it? Well, first of all, it says God created man, and the man was alone; and so God reached in him, took out a rib and created woman, and He created woman to be his helper, to be his helper. We know that from Genesis. “We also know that just in the normal arc of going through the Old Testament, some things are very obvious. There…
Recently, I shared a post on social media about Debi Pearl and her angry dad. He worked hard to support the family, but would flare up in anger and even cuss at her mother and children at times. Yet, Debi’s mother remained cheerful and kind. She eventually won him over with her godly behavior. He never became perfect (imagine that!), but he was a far better man due to Debi’s faithful mother. Some felt her mother should have gone to…
Recently, my upper right arm began hurting. On Sunday, I began massaging it with some of my fingers. By the time I went to bed, it was extremely painful. I only slept a few hours that night. When I arose from my bed, I nearly fainted from the pain and lack of sleep. When I was able, I went to get the book you see above. I have been using it for many years for all types of physical and…
A man wrote a LONG, boring post trying to convince people that I am a cult leader. Michelle Lesley used his post to support her claim that I am a false teacher. So, I want to ask you if you think I am a cult leader? Many accuse Bill Gothard of being a cult leader, too. Some of you may wonder why I even bring up Gothard’s name since most seem to despise him. It’s because he was the first…
1. I am not a Pelagian and believe that we all have inherited Adam’s sinful flesh. 2. Michael Pearl is not a Pelagian, and he, too, does not believe in or teach sinless perfectionism. 3. I believe in salvation by grace alone through faith in Christ Jesus and that we were made for good works as God’s workmanship. 4. I love correction from God’s Word, and all who know me personally see a vibrant life full of joy in Christ…
Written by Lisa Vitello in her “New Harvest Homestead” newsletter from 2005 One of the most useful lessons I have learned over the years is the concept of making money by saving money. Our 25 years of marriage have been marked by financial ups and downs. When I was a young, first-time mother, I joined the La Leche League. The Lord really used that lovely group of ladies to set me on a course for the rest of my wifely…
