Many young women have been taught their entire lives to never depend upon a man. This is what feminism teaches. Women can do fine without men. They are strong, independent, and free. Besides, what about all of the “what ifs…?” that are asked. Women always need a back up plan in case their man disappoints them, leaves, or dies, right? “As they say, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. It’s because boomer parents told their daughters to…
Recently, I read “A Severe Mercy” by Sheldon Vanuken. Sheldon was a pagan and married a pagan wife. Their goal was to be deeply in love always and do anything it took to stay this way including not having children. They believed life was about love and beauty, so they went about living their lives seeking this. They met some Christians who they became very close to and realized that these Christians were the happiest and kindest people they have…
“One of the great achievements of Martin Luther and the Reformers was the elevation of family life back to its rightful place. The medieval church looked down on marriage as a necessary evil, and saw the roles of spouse and parent as ‘secular’ callings inferior to the ‘religious’ life of monastic orders. Luther was at his best when railing against Rome’s false dichotomy between the sacred and the secular, as in this characteristically blunt and earthy passage from one of…
The radical feminists’ leaders were clear that they didn’t like men. Feminism’s entire purpose was to promote competition with men and even wants superiority over them. (Why do you think they are clamoring for a female president?) They falsely believe that women are better than men. Modern women now claim that they don’t need men. They are strong, independent, and free. I asked the women in the chat room to imagine a world without men and here is what they…
“Hello. I actually have a vastly different view on this. I am, and always have been, the ‘provider’ in our marriage. I make more than my husband. My husband was even a stay-at-home dad for my son’s first seven years, and I am so thankful. Even when we are both working, my income is much higher than his. “I see your point about God’s creation, and the order he established, however, there is room for the discussion about ‘times have…
Is this true? Are you worthy of flowers, bubble baths, candles, the ring, a man who loves you as Christ loves the church, and of the entire fairytale? A woman tagged me to this on Instagram. She knew these weren’t true. Look at all of the “likes” on this post already, and the woman who created it has a large following on Instagram. She is leading many women down the wrong path yet women eat this stuff up. They love…
Written By Ken We live very much in a Tit-for-Tat world and this same mentality now permeates our churches. Although nothing could be further from the heart of the gospel of Christ than conditional love and behaviors, still far too many “Christian” couples are playing the tit-for-tat game trying to ensure “fairness” in their marriages. If you are all about ensuring that everything is fair for others, I get it and am with you to some extent. But if you…
The following comment was made on my post Every Child Deserves to Have a Mother at Home. Women are taught to value their career and paycheck over their children and no one thinks twice about it. I am trying to encourage women to think twice about the lies they have been told. “My husband and I have struggled with infertility for three years and are about to start IVF. I have never been angry about our inability to conceive naturally…
“And behold among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding, Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house, In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night: And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart. She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house” (Proverbs 7:7-11). Here’s a man; a man…
The only place to find wisdom and understanding is in God’s Word. The wisdom of the world is foolishness to God. Most of the young in our nation have only been fed the wisdom of the world and they only know foolishness. Most have never been taught the wisdom and understanding of God. We are told in Proverbs 3 that wisdom is more precious than rubies. It’s ways are ways of pleasantness, and her paths are peace. She is the…
