The Homemaker’s Creed By Betty Crocker

The Homemaker’s Creed By Betty Crocker

“In the Betty Crocker Cookbooks of old, you may be fortunate enough to find a hidden creed slipped inside. It is beautiful words written from a fictitious Betty Crocker (though keep in mind that a real-life virtuous woman did write it!) in the 1920’s. It was meant to inspire homemakers from long ago to join the ‘Home Legion’ and declare ‘Good Homemaking for a Better World.’ Oh how the times have changed (insert sorrowful sigh)… but doesn’t that sound lovely…

Job’s Wife was a Foolish Woman

Job’s Wife was a Foolish Woman

“Then said his wife unto him, Dost thou still retain thine integrity? Curse God and die. But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips” (Job 2:9,10), FOOLISH, void of understanding or sound judgment; weak in intellect; unwise, imprudent; proceeding from depravity. God’s Word has a lot to say…

The Remaking of Biblical Womanhood

The Remaking of Biblical Womanhood

Beth Allison Barr has degrees from higher institutions of education and a high-powered career. When she had small children, she was asked if she was going to homeschool them. Well, this greatly offended her as if all she was created to do was be a wife and mother. Therefore, she wrote an entire book explaining away God’s will for women in order to fit her lifestyle. Instead of molding her life into the Bible, she molded the Bible into her…

A Reminder of Your God-Ordained Role, Women

A Reminder of Your God-Ordained Role, Women

The role for women spelled out in God’s Word is so terribly maligned these days. Our culture is always trying to undermine it. Even most female “Bible” teachers are participating in doing this by twisting Scripture to mean the opposite of what God intended! In the beginning, God made man from the dust of the earth. He made the woman from the man’s rib, because the man was alone and needed a help meet. “It is not good that the…

Divorce is Far Worse Than Having Parents Who Argue

Divorce is Far Worse Than Having Parents Who Argue

My home was not one of peace when I was growing up. My mom and dad argued regularly when my dad was home which wasn’t often because he worked so much. They were not happy together at all. There were times in my teenage years when I wish they would have divorced, but those thoughts were fleeting. However, they stuck it out until the day my mom passed into the arms of Jesus. When my mom was around 80 years…

Casting Down Wicked and Vain Imaginations

Casting Down Wicked and Vain Imaginations

IMAGINATION, A conception or imagining of some event; a scheme, plot, or project, especially of evil. “And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually” (Genesis 6:5). “An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief” (Proverbs 6:18). “Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in…

Women Struggling with Pornography

Women Struggling with Pornography

For many years, I listened to the Dennis Prager radio show. He spoke often about men’s and women’s struggle. He said whereas men struggle with their sexual nature, women struggle with their emotional nature. I believed it 100 percent! Women absolutely struggle with being led by their emotions and feelings more than most men. This is why women are more easily deceived (1 Timothy 2:14). I never struggled with my sexual nature. I didn’t feed it when I was young….

The Fornication Culture is Toxic, NOT the Purity Culture

The Fornication Culture is Toxic, NOT the Purity Culture

“Purity culture tells women that, through the way they dress, the way they move, and the roles they play in churches and in households, they’re the ones responsible for making sure the men around them won’t ‘stumble’ sexually. As a result, it cultivates an environment in which victim blaming and rape culture flourishes and results in debilitating shame for hundreds of thousands of women.” (Matthias Roberts) These are the feminist talking points to make women feel no responsibility whatsoever for…

Repentance and Victory Over Gluttony!

Repentance and Victory Over Gluttony!

There’s a woman named Jillian on Instagram. Someone asked what right does she have to teach biblical truths since she is obese (or something derogatory like this). Jillian answered by saying that she used to make all kinds of excuses for her obesity. It was NOT her fault at all. But now, she admits it was laziness and gluttony, and it is her fault! She has repented for her sins and now, she’s doing something about it. Through intermittent fasting…

Frank Talk About Dating and Sex

Frank Talk About Dating and Sex

Throughout my childhood, I grew up watching fairytales such as Cinderella and others that were full of romance and love. I dreamed about this and wanted it for myself someday. During the summer of 1974 when I was 15 years old, I spend a lot of time at the beach with a tall, handsome guy from school. My mom told me that I had to be 16 years old to date, so we couldn’t go on dates yet. I wore…
