The Waste of a College Education

The Waste of a College Education

Our culture idolizes education. Having a degree from a university makes you somebody in most people’s mind. I know it doesn’t matter to the Lord, that is for sure since the “the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God” (1 Corinthians 3:19). “A recent article in The New York Times about the mountain of education debt owed by college graduates — an average of $27,600 — reports that “fewer students than ever say taking out loans to attend college…

Only One Job For Mothers Lasts for Eternity

Only One Job For Mothers Lasts for Eternity

A mother who is a doctor or nurse can help people get better but they will all die eventually. A mother who is a lawyer can win some cases but only those who love Jesus win in the end. A mother who is a teacher can have an influence in her students’ lives for one year but what they learn in this life is very temporary. A mother who is an actress or singer entertains a lot of strangers for…

When Her Husband Came Home After the Affair

When Her Husband Came Home After the Affair

This post is NOT about my husband as many are claiming. My husband has been faithful to me for our entire marriage. It’s only those who enjoy twisting and misinterpreting words (as they do Scripture) in order to slander and use against us.  Her husband had an affair but she fought for her marriage using 1 Peter 3:1-6 because she cared more about her husband’s eternal soul and her children’s future than her own happiness. She was willing to do…

Sin Hardens Hearts

Sin Hardens Hearts

“Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast unto the end; While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation” (Hebrews 3:12-15). From…

The Perfect Recipe for a Great Marriage

The Perfect Recipe for a Great Marriage

God has a perfect recipe for a great marriage and it’s in Colossians 3. “Seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of Him that created Him” (Colossians 3:9, 10). The moment we believe, we have put off the old man and put on the new man. We are a brand new creature in Christ. Therefore, since we are a new…

Should Young Women Teach Titus 2:4, 5?

Should Young Women Teach Titus 2:4, 5?

As many of you have noticed, there are a lot of younger women teaching other women the precepts of Titus 2:4, 5. It is most likely due to the void left by older women who are not obeying the Lord in this area. But are they the ones that should be teaching these things according to the Word? We know that younger women should love and obey their husbands, love their children by raising them up in the nurture and…

Avoid Foolish Questions

Avoid Foolish Questions

Written By Charles Spurgeon Our days are few, and are far better spent in doing good, than in disputing over matters which are, at best, of minor importance. The old schoolmen did a world of mischief by their incessant discussion of subjects of no practical importance; and our Churches suffer much from petty wars over abstruse points and unimportant questions. After everything has been said that can be said, neither party is any the wiser, and therefore the discussion no…
