My Monday Ramblings

My Monday Ramblings

Scrolling through Twitter frequently isn’t healthy, in my opinion. It’s my favorite social media app since Truth isn’t censored at all on it, but the bickering, fear, and worse-case-scenarios become too much at times. On Friday, I decided I wasn’t going to scroll through it at all on Saturday and Sunday. I have never done anything like this, but it all just became too much. It doesn’t bring peace to my soul. Reading everyone’s strong opinions about the newest cabinet…

Her Children Rose Up and Called Her Blessed

Her Children Rose Up and Called Her Blessed

Yesterday, I spend almost two and a half hours watching Laine’s funeral. The sound was not good, so I probably only understood about half of what was spoken. I wish someone had tape recorded it so I could listen to it again and hear every word. Her children rose up and called her blessed. It was absolutely inspirational and beautiful to watch. I am going to try to remember some of what they said. It was so powerful and an…

Mom: The missing ingredient in the MAHA movement

Mom: The missing ingredient in the MAHA movement

Written By Suzanne Venker Gone are the days when children are home with their mothers, when morning meant moving slowly, when kids played outside in their neighborhoods and were called inside at dusk, when TV viewing was limited, when bedtime was early, and when obesity and mental health issues were rare. That childhood was replaced with daycare, after-school care, fast food, unlimited screen time, latchkey kids, countless extra-curricular activities, no downtime, sleep deprivation, and childhood obesity. The most powerful voices…

Forcing One’s Convictions on Others

Forcing One’s Convictions on Others

There’s something about women that needs to be addressed. I’ve noticed that women are far more likely to jump on a new “movement” than men are. I’ve done this, so I write from experience. These then become their strong convictions that they want to force upon others, especially their husbands. They want to be the leader in their families. Now, these convictions aren’t called sin in the Bible, but they try to use the Bible to support their convictions. I…

Great Questions For a Dad to Ask a Guy Who Wants to Marry His Daughter

Great Questions For a Dad to Ask a Guy Who Wants to Marry His Daughter

Written By Pastor Gabriel Hughes There are times where, as a pastor, I’ve been asked to interview a young man on behalf of a young woman in my congregation. These are among the questions I ask. They are the same questions I’ll ask any young man who wants to date, court, or marry one of my daughters: 1. What is the gospel? Defend the deity of Christ. 2. How often do you study your Bible? Pray? Attend church? 3. What…

The Problem Always Seems to Be the Husband

The Problem Always Seems to Be the Husband

This is a comment given by Trey on my post Living Like An Abigail: I hear so many Christian wives these days talking about how bad their husbands are. The problem even seems to exist with Christian husbands who are reading their “Bible steadily, listening to sermons, and praying.” The one actually causing the problem in the marriage never seems to be the wife though. It is always their husband’s fault. And then I hear statements like these, “This is…

Godly Women are Quiet Women

Godly Women are Quiet Women

Our culture is noisy. Social media and culture are noisy. How are we, as Christian woman, supposed to live according to God’s Word? We are to be quiet. First, let’s look at how worldly women are. “She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house” (Proverbs 7:11). Here, God is referring to a harlot, a worldly woman. She is loud and wants to be heard by the way she dresses and speaks. She is stubborn and wants…
