We were discussing public schools in the chat room last week because one woman told me that the high school her son attends is the “darkest place” she’s ever stepped foot on. I drove past that school the other day and I saw young teenage girls with their stomachs and breasts half uncovered, tight jeans, and short shorts. I grieved for them along with the guys who were exposed to this all day long. One woman asked what she should…
In Romans 1, the Apostle Paul teaches the progression of sin away from godliness and towards a reprobate mind (a person abandoned to sin; one lost to virtue and religion). Because that, when they knew God, they glorifiedhimnot as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened (Romans 1:21). In the previous verse, we are told that everyone knows there’s a God because creation “screams” (my version) His name! “For the invisible…
It’s surprising to many when science backs what God has commanded. It’s not to me. Why would it be? He’s our Creator and knows what is best for us. He knows that mothers home full time with their children is best for all involved. Ms. Komisar, a Jewish psychoanalyst and liberal Democrat, discovered the importance of mothers being home with their children and wrote a book about it. James Tarnato wrote about her findings in the article The Politicization of…
A man wrote me this the other day concerning female school teachers: “I started Kindergarten in 1957, and my teacher was an older woman, probably late 50’s or early 60’s. Same with first grade. When I started second grade at a brand new school, I had my first of many female teachers who were young, probably mid 20’s to 30’s. While there were a few male teachers at elementary schools in the 60’s, women were the norm. So here is…
Do you live a life of yieldedness? Do you not care if you don’t get your own way? Do you live to please others instead of yourselves? Do you first see that people around you are served before you serve yourself? Do you live to be served or to serve? There’s a great article about how the Amish raise their children and most Christian parents would do well to learn from them. From what I have seem, most “Christian” children…
Written By Ken Alexander To be clear, God calls women to be submissive wives and keepers of the home, raising the next generation of godly children. There is no higher Biblical calling than to evangelize the children God entrusts in our care and to help grow them up in the Lord Jesus. These gifts from God will be our greatest treasures in heaven when the wood, hay and stubble of life is burned away, leaving the gold and silver of…
Country Living did an article called Why Parents Today Aren’t Strict Enough.“Children were treated like pets or – worse – release-valves for their parents’ stresses and fears, then expected to magically transform into healthy, functional adults. Which is why we’re the most overweight, addicted, medicated generation in history.” I visited with a neighbor yesterday who raised one son. He was never given any boundaries. He ate what he wanted, when he wanted, watched what he wanted, and went to bed…
Whenever my viral post goes viral again,many of my more recent posts receive a lot of hits and comments as well. Unfortunately, vile and nasty comments are spewed all over my Facebook page, along with contentious and contrary ones (those who believe it’s their duty to scold me for what I teach). Thankfully, I have a small “army” of godly women helping me to ban, delete, and hide those types of comments. My husband, Ken, has also become an administrator…
Some have accused me of supporting a patriarchal type system. Patriarch means “the father and ruler of a family; one who governs by paternal right. It is usually applied to the progenitors of the Israelites, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and the sons of Jacob” (1828 Webster Dictionary). Yes, I believe in submission by a wife to her husband, the obedience of children to their parents, and the husband as head over his wife and leader of his family so I do…
From an Anonymous comment on my Peaceful Parenting post Sadly “peaceful parenting” is very quickly becoming the new norm for “good parenting”. Children are being treated as idols and parents are constantly yielding to every emotion and request like their child’s life depends on it. I am not judging these parents because they are genuinely trying to do the right thing. I know many peaceful/gentle/attachment parents and they are beautiful people who are just misguided and heavily influenced by the…
