Husbands are Not Commanded to Meet Their Wives’ Emotional Needs

Husbands are Not Commanded to Meet Their Wives’ Emotional Needs

The Bible tells us that husbands are to love their wives as Christ loves the Church. They are to provide for and protect their wives. They are to not withhold sexual intimacy from them. They are to treat them as the weaker vessel. However, the Bible doesn’t say that husbands must meet their wives’ emotional needs and love their wives with the “love language” their wives demand. This is extra-biblical nonsense that is destroying marriages. I received an email recently…

Women Weren’t Created For the Battle

Women Weren’t Created For the Battle

“And that ye study to be quiet…” (1 Thessalonians 4:11). This verse has convicted me along with the verse about having a meek and quiet spirit which God wants us to adorn ourselves with. I have been pondering these verses a lot recently with all of the controversy swirling around social media. Many young women seem to have no problem calling out and going after pastors (men) on social media. Some respond with cruel accusations. It’s an ugly sight to…

Best Sermon on Biblical Womanhood EVER!!!

Best Sermon on Biblical Womanhood EVER!!!

Preached By G. Craige Lewis of EX Ministries. It’s the BEST sermon on biblical womanhood I have ever heard. “When the Bible tells the older women to teach, it doesn’t tell them to teach the Word. No, that’s my job. I’m doing that! It’s not biblical for women to gather and have other women teach you the Word. Every time that happens, we lose folks to it. The Bible tells older women exactly what to teach other women! How to…

Motherhood is a Woman’s Highest Calling

Motherhood is a Woman’s Highest Calling

Motherhood is a woman’s highest calling. Yes, we are called to glorify the Lord. What does this mean? It means we are to obey the Lord. What does the Lord call women to do? What is their highest purpose in life? From the beginning, God said it wasn’t good for man to be alone, so He created a help meet (helper suitable) for him (Genesis 2:18). Then, He commanded they be fruitful and multiply (Genesis 1:28). The woman’s curse from…

My Lukewarm Christian Experience

My Lukewarm Christian Experience

Like many Christians, I was raised in a lukewarm Christian home. My dad read us Bible stories from some Bible story books once in awhile. I never saw my parents reading their Bibles nor did they ever read it to us. They didn’t talk about the Lord often. They took us faithfully to a lukewarm church. Then I attended a lukewarm Christian college. The OT professor taught us from a book he had written, and he didn’t believe in the…

The Mistress of the Household

The Mistress of the Household

Written By Mountain Housewife What are the responsibilities given to Christian wives in Titus 2 and 1 Timothy 5? In Titus 2, Paul gives specific instructions to be given to the older and younger women of the congregation: The older women likewise that they be in behavior as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to wine, teachers of good things, that they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, to…

What is Best For the Children?

What is Best For the Children?

“But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea” (Matthew 18:6). I am frequently accused of being unloving and uncaring whenever I teach women to be keepers at home so they don’t blaspheme God’s Word (Titus 2:5). I love children. I want what’s best for them. What’s best and safest for them…

False Accusations Against Me

False Accusations Against Me

A person I once respected and shared some of her posts has turned against me. Several months ago, she told me how much she appreciated my teaching but something caused her to come after me. And true to her pattern when she decides to go after someone, she goes hard. I tried to dialogue with her but her laundry list kept growing. Yes, we disciplined our children, and yes, I love the Pearls. From what I understand, her primary complaint…

The Curse of Emotional Needs

The Curse of Emotional Needs

Recently, I have been trying to convince women of the destruction of the phrase “emotional needs” in marriage. Women go into marriage believing that their husbands are to meet all of their emotional needs which are intangible. This is an impossibility for husbands and has led to many women divorcing their husbands. They falsely believe their husbands are to meet their emotional needs, love them with their love language, and make them happy, and if they don’t, they’re out. This…

Stick to Teaching Biblical Womanhood, Older Women

Stick to Teaching Biblical Womanhood, Older Women

This is the book that began the transformation in my marriage almost 25 years ago. It’s worn and tattered from reading it so many times, and it’s the book I used to mentor many women. The only doctrine Debi teaches in this book is that of biblical womanhood. I attended Women’s Bible Studies and conferences for 30 years or so. Not once was I taught the doctrine of biblical womanhood. Once I read this book, I began teaching women in…
