Recently, more than a few women have written to me telling me their husband is having an affair, i.e. committing adultery. Some of these women have as many as five young children. They are devastated and heartbroken. Instead of writing a post about this, I made a video since I thought it would be better for me to say these things to you “in person” than on paper. I pray this will encourage you and give you wisdom. He’s Having…
BSF (Bible Study Fellowship) is a large Bible Study organization which was founded by a woman and written by a woman named Audrey Wetherell. How is this biblical? What biblical qualifications did she have to do this? God had men write every book in the Bible. He has many biblical qualifications for the elders who are the pastors and teachers in the churches, and they are all to be men. Does Audrey Wetherell fit this description of a pastor or…
My sister texted me some letters I had written to my mom in January of my senior year at Westmont College in 1980. She kept all of our letters! Yes, there was only snail mail back then. There were no computers, Internet, or iPhones. I will put some updated thoughts in parenthesis in this letter, but it’s funny to look back and see what my young self was feeling at this stage in life. I met my husband the next…
“For of this sort are they which creep into houses and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, ever learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth” (2 Timothy 3:6,7). Do you notice that this refers to women only? Why did Satan go to Eve and not Adam? Here are what a few commentaries of old have to say about this verse. “Satan began his work of temptation with Eve rather…
All of the women in my family had our “Happy Hour” where we eat, ask questions about our marriages to strengthen each other, and laugh a lot. A few years ago, a woman came to share her testimony with us. She was married to Craig. He was tall, dark and handsome. He worked hard to provide for their family. They had three daughters together. He would come home late each day after working hard and instead of eating with the…
Hi Lori! My name is Susan. I am 27 and married with three babies. I am just writing to thank you for your writing – first for your book, and also for your blog and twitter posts (which I see on Pinterest). I read your book and Debi Pearl’s books on marriage probably about a year ago. They greatly convicted me, stirred my heart, and helped me to begin many changes in my life, marriage, and in raising my children….
“And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you” (1 Thessalonians 4:11). We live in such a loud culture that encourages us to be loud. Feminism is loud women demanding to be heard and demanding their rights. The harlot in Proverbs is described as being loud and her feet not abiding in her home. It’s difficult not to get caught up in all of the…
Our four children walk in Truth. They all love the Lord and for this, we are very thankful. There is no greater joy, as God’s Word tells us. I am going to tell you how we raised them. I know there are no guarantees. Some parents raise their children in the Lord and they will still turn away from the Lord. There’s no special formula, but I will share what we did. We were strict parents as I have shared…
Written by Lisa Vitello in her newsletter “New Harvest Homestead” from July 2005 Some of the fondest memories from my childhood are the times I spent with my grandparents. There were four children in our family and my grandmother would invite each one of us separately from time to time to spend the night and enjoy a special evening of one on one spoiling. In the morning, we would gather together in my grandmother’s kitchen for a simple breakfast of…
Written by Patriarchy Hannah on Twitter You’re haunted by your trauma because you won’t stop talking about it. One of the best things my brother ever did for me was *NOT* put me in therapy after he took us. He says everyone swore that I would need massive therapy. He decided not to send us. Once per week, the principal or vice principal of my school brought me into their office and just checked in on me for about 15…
