God is Using the Seeds I Planted

God is Using the Seeds I Planted

When I began writing for my blog almost nine years ago, I had no aspirations of going big. Here’s my first blog post: Correction Versus Criticism. I knew I wasn’t a good writer but I LOVED to teach. I always have since I was little. There was a young woman I had been mentoring who was a new believer and she was moving away. I began the blog for her. I wanted to keep mentoring her through my blog. I…

It Was a Scam, We Think

It Was a Scam, We Think

Yesterday morning, I received an email from Facebook supposedly. In it, I was told that my Facebook page “The Transformed Wife” was going to be deleted. They told me I have two days to make an appeal. They gave a link to the URL facebook.com which sent me to a place where I could make an appeal so I did. Truthfully, at that moment, I was devastated. I know in the scheme of everything happening in the world and even…

Toxic People Need Jesus Too

Toxic People Need Jesus Too

“If Jesus spent three years pouring into Judas’ life, what are the implications for Christians and ‘cutting toxic people out’ of their lives” (Barnabas Piper). I agree with him and I am going to try to argue from a biblical perspective and an illustration. I have heard mostly women write or say this about “toxic” people in their lives and I always wondered if it was biblical. The Apostle Paul wrote this: “I wrote unto you in an epistle not…

The Desire to Control

The Desire to Control

Do women naturally have a desire to control their husband? According to Genesis 3:16, they do and it happened right after the Fall. When I teach women to not deprive their husbands sexually, they come up with all types of excuses why they shouldn’t have to do this. The majority of these excuses are simply another way to control their husbands. When I teach women to submit to their husbands, they will come up with all types of exceptions that…

Can “Fat Shaming” Be Conviction Instead?

Can “Fat Shaming” Be Conviction Instead?

“Liz was 62 years old and had homeschooled her two daughters, who were now in their 20s, unmarried, and living at home. Liz and her husband adopted their three-year-old foster son and were raising him. Then, she suddenly died of a heart attack. She was dearly loved but greatly overweight. Liz exchanged the years of continuing to be a loving mom for the pleasure of a high-food-consumption life. This isn’t judging her. We mourn with her family, but each of…

All the Reasons Why Women Don’t Need to Be Silent in the Churches

All the Reasons Why Women Don’t Need to Be Silent in the Churches

Last Saturday, I published this handwritten post on Facebook and of course, women just loved it! Not. If you look at the comment section, you will see many reasons given why women aren’t to be silent in the churches. I am going to go over them with you so that you will have a good defense for your faith. We must know God’s Word and be able to defend it against false teaching. Some said those verses were written to…

Who Should Preach?

Who Should Preach?

From teaching women’s role in the church gatherings, “Let the women learn in silence with all subjection” (1 Timothy 2:11), and that women are not called to be preachers, pastors, elders, or deacons, many argue with me that women indeed are to preach the Gospel. I then encourage them to read through the Gospels and Acts to find out what preaching is and they will find that not one woman in the Bible ever preached. It was only men. There…

Live Each Day Fully!

Live Each Day Fully!

I watched Charlie Kirk interview Tucker Carlson the other day. Tucker admitted to having a drinking problem when he was younger and a terrible fear of flying. He had flown a lot as a kid and had some frightening experiences so every time he flew as an adult, he would get drunk. Before his 4th child, he flew to Pakistan on business and the plane literally crashed. For 20 minutes before the crash, the entire plane knew they were all…

Maybe It was Time to Say Goodbye to Hallmark a Long Time Ago

Maybe It was Time to Say Goodbye to Hallmark a Long Time Ago

Hallmark isn’t owned and run by born again believers in Jesus Christ. Yes, they have been making “decent” movies for many years now. There is no nudity, little immodesty, no foul language (except they do use the word “God” at times and they’re not speaking about or to Him which I think may be a new thing in their movies), no violence, and no sex in their movies. Parents don’t have to worry too much about their children seeing any…

Lack of Traditional Values Destroys Nations in Three Generations

Lack of Traditional Values Destroys Nations in Three Generations

Yesterday, our pastor said that an atheist man set out to figure out what destroys nations. His conclusion was that the leaving of morals (disintegration of family and unbound sexuality) is what destroys nations in three generations. We can see this happening in our nation. When my mom was growing up, people still highly valued the institution of marriage, having children, and raising a family. Living together before marriage was considered “living in sin” and everyone knew homosexuality was a…
