Is Submission Unquestioning Obedience?

February 28, 2020 Lori Alexander Comments 22 comments

Someone tweeted this comment: “Biblical submission is not the same as the submission some preach. It’s not BDSM, it’s not unquestioning obedience, it’s not degrading or a lowering of the woman’s value…” I would truly like to know WHO teaches that submission is BDSM, unquestioning obedience, or that it degrades and lowers a woman’s value. The ONLY ones I could see teaching this type of submission are those who hate biblical submission and want to twist it into something ugly…

Homemaking Tips For Young Wives

February 27, 2020 Lori Alexander Comments 27 comments

Many young wives have no idea how to keep up with housework or how to run a home. I asked the wise women in the chat room for their best homemaking tips for young wives and here are some of them: “Don’t expect your husband to do half of all the household chores. Plan that you are responsible for housework and be grateful when your husband helps you. Entitlement leads to disappointment and conflict. If you assume it’s your job,…

We Were Strict Parents

February 26, 2020 Lori Alexander Comments 27 comments

We were strict parents. Many told us we were too strict. We disciplined them diligently when they were young. They needed little discipline after the age of five. We were careful who they hung out with. We were careful what TV shows and movies they saw. We had a curfew even through high school. I think it was 10:00 pm. We didn’t allow our children to date before 18 years of age. They could hang out with friends in a…

Don’t Throw Your Love Away

February 25, 2020 Lori Alexander Comments 25 comments

Written by Ken Far too many throw their love away. I am not talking about having sex before marriage which has nothing to do at all with love but selfishness. No, true love is when you make a commitment to share true life for a lifetime with another. True love is the commitment to seek the best interest in another in good times and in bad. True love is a deep and abiding intimacy where you know and are known…

Yea, Hath God Said…

February 24, 2020 Lori Alexander Comments 13 comments

Written By Blair From This Post. “The Bible also reveals that human beings can be possessed by evil forces.” So true, a lot of people seem to overlook that demons still are possessing people nowadays. Then the original lie to Eve: “Yea, hath God said……….?” Yea, hath God said – that you are a help meet to your husband? He is really supposed to be helping you instead. Yea, hath God said – that you are the weaker vessel? You…

A Testimony of Healing After An Affair

February 21, 2020 Lori Alexander Comments 13 comments

A comment from my post “Wives Cheating on Their Husbands“ Lori, this may be too long to post and I know I am late to post on this, but I read through many of the responses and I feel compelled to add some of my story, not just for the men asking for stories of marriages redeemed, but also for women who are dipping, or are tempted to dip, their feet in the same sin of adultery, as I was…

The Cultural Train Wreck Coming to a Church Near You

February 20, 2020 Lori Alexander Comments 54 comments

Written By Ken Dear Pastor, Unfortunately, the church cannot be the salt of the earth if you keep sugar coating God’s Word. This has become so apparent to me over the past few months as we see and hear of more and more pastors and evangelical leaders falling into the slippery slide of culture and dragging their unlearned church along with them. Coming to a church near you is a teaching time that will make any mature believer’s spirit jump…

Birth Control Allowed the Sexual Revolution to Happen

February 19, 2020 Lori Alexander Comments 35 comments

Yesterday, I watched a film called “Unprotected” on Amazon Prime which someone suggested to me. I took a lot of notes and want to share them and add some of my own thoughts. I encourage all of you to watch it. The solution for homemakers who were “bored and unfulfilled” at home was to have a career, decided Betty Freidan. With a career, women would be fulfilled, content, and happy. They could forget the laundry and feeding the children and…

What Did Sarah Adorn Herself With?

February 18, 2020 Lori Alexander Comments 26 comments

We know from the Bible that Sarah, Abraham’s wife, was a beautiful woman. What did she adorn herself with? Did she wear her hair in a special way? What about her clothing? Was it made from the finest material? Did she wear the most beautiful jewelry and the best makeup? We aren’t told any of these things but we are told exactly how she adorned herself, and if you’ve ever been around women who adorn themselves in the same way,…

The Good That Feminism Has Done?

February 17, 2020 Lori Alexander Comments 10 comments

Many women through the years have tried to convince me that feminism has done a lot of good so why can’t I write about that. I don’t believe it has done any good, only harm. Did you know that the founding feminists were agnostics or atheists? “Outraged by the role religion had played in keeping women in submission, many feminist leaders of the early Feminist movement identified as atheists and agnostics. Almost every traditional religion puts women in an inferior…
