Many Will Never Become Grandparents

Many Will Never Become Grandparents

We have too many friends our age (in their 60s) who have children that are either not married or are not having children. These friends WANT grandchildren desperately, but their children aren’t interested. Why is this? In an article called Thirty, Flirty, and (Not) Thriving, the author, Helen Roy, explains why this is happening: “This is one of the quiet tragedies of feminism and modernity: the disappearance of intergenerational female friendship. We are now reaping the bitter rewards of a…

Did Elisabeth Elliot Pave the Way For Female Preachers?

Did Elisabeth Elliot Pave the Way For Female Preachers?

A few weeks ago, I was watching Elisabeth Elliot teach a group of people on some topic that I don’t remember. I think it was about being a godly woman. In the class, I noticed there were men and women. When her talk was done, she said her next teaching will be to men on how to be real men. It reminded me of her speaking to men and women in our chapel service at Westmont College many years ago….

Is God Okay With Polygamy?

Is God Okay With Polygamy?

We can see it coming in our culture. Soon enough, polygamy will be accepted and celebrated. We must have good biblical arguments to defeat the wide acceptance of this practice. Yes, God did seem to allow it in the Old Testament, but is it God’s ideal? God allowed slavery, yet He never commanded, nor mandated it, and few would argue that slavery was in God’s perfect will. Biblical scholars point to the fact that God made ONE wife for Adam,…

Why Do Women Cry Ab*se When I Teach on Marriage?

Why Do Women Cry Ab*se When I Teach on Marriage?

How come so many women want to turn all of my posts on marriage into abuse? What is their intention and purpose for doing this? Yes, there are women being abused, but for the majority of women who are not, they need good, solid teaching on becoming godly wives. I asked these questions to the people on my Instagram. Here are some of the GREAT responses:       I believe it’s because they want to equate abuse with submission…

Home Duties Ought To Fill the Minds and Hearts of Wives

Home Duties Ought To Fill the Minds and Hearts of Wives

“To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.” (Titus 2:5) There’s a lot of argument as to what “keepers at home” is in this day and age. Here’s how the men of old interpreted “keepers at home” to mean: “Home duties, cares, pleasures, sacrifices of self—these God-appointed duties ought to fill the mind and the heart of the young wife. There should be no desire, no attempt,…

Warn Your Sons About Foolish Women

Warn Your Sons About Foolish Women

Toby Sumpter in a YouTube video called “Do Not Give Your Strength to Woman” taught some interesting things about the feminists origins. Feminism makes women foolish. I have summarized what he taught. The goal of the feminist movement was to destroy the family by destroying the American Patriarchy. How? By destroying monogamy through promiscuity, pornography, prostitution, and homosexuality. These were the goals of NOW from the beginning. They needed the utter deconstruction of society by infiltrating every area of influence…

Does Virginity Correlate to Your Salvation?

Does Virginity Correlate to Your Salvation?

The purity culture has received a bad name in recent years. It seems there are many different views on the purity culture depending upon how one was taught. In an article that claims that men received a free pass in the purity culture, I beg to differ. It sure didn’t with my sons! I taught them as much about purity as I did my daughters. I knew it was important for all of them. “Virginity, specifically female virginity, is sacrosanct…

Handling Our Emotions in a Godly Way

Handling Our Emotions in a Godly Way

A few days ago, I shared a post on my Facebook page that was written by a group called “The Gentle Mamma.” It was titled, “Hold Your Sons.” In it was written, “Put your hand over their hearts and send them the purest love in existence.” Only God’s love is pure. Pure love is spelled out in 1 Corinthians 13. Most of us fall short on a daily basis of anything close to pure love. “Tell them their emotions matter.”…

Why Do Women Tend to Vote Democrat?

Why Do Women Tend to Vote Democrat?

A woman who goes by the name Pardes Seleh on Twitter asked the question, “Why do women tend to vote Democrat?” Here are some of the responses she received: “Women are naturally more ‘nurturing,’ so I think the idea of the state as a giver and protector is more appealing to them. Notice that women who are married tend to be more conservative — their caring instincts are redirected toward their family as opposed to ‘society.’” “Women are socialists by…

Yippee! A Sexual Counterrevolution is Coming!

Yippee! A Sexual Counterrevolution is Coming!

In The Spectator, there is an article called “The Sexual Counterrevolution is Coming.” All of us who love the Lord and His ways will be happy to hear this. The sexual revolution has been devastating upon our nation, and anyone with common sense left can see this reality. “Narayan and his close male friends are all around the same age. They’re all elite guys working in tech and finance — and all either dating to marry, or already married. In…
