Recently, a woman wrote the following comment on my Facebook page. I read it to my husband, Ken, and he immediately began telling me how I should respond. He had a lot to say so I asked him to make a blog post about it so he did. “Is there a reason you only have four children, transformed wife? If I’m correct based on what I’ve believed to have seen on your page, you only have four, right? If there…
John MacArthur went against the ungodly mandate that churches weren’t allowed to meet in California yet riots, protests, liquor stores, and abortion clinics were allowed. He spoke about this last Sunday. I listened to his sermon. It was excellent. I will share some of the points that stood out to me. He began his sermon by explaining unbelievers: dead in trespasses and sin, live in futility of mind, love darkness and hate the light, hostile to God, preaching of cross…
John MacArthur issued a statement about the government forbidding churches to meet: “Grace Community Church has always stood immovably on those biblical principles. As His people, we are subject to His will and commands as revealed in Scripture. Therefore, we cannot and will not acquiesce to a government-imposed moratorium on our weekly congregational worship or other regular corporate gatherings. Compliance would be disobedience to our Lord’s clear commands.” When almost everything was closed down, he agreed with the government mandate…
“You can’t grow a peaceful society by sowing seeds of destruction. Neither can you defeat the Hitlers of the world by becoming like them. That’s why Christianity will survive all the empires and dictators that line up against it. The followers of evil will ultimately reap the seed of hate and destruction they’ve sown. Our seed is love, truth, and goodness. These are things upon which the kingdom of God is built.” This comment is in a series I am…
The other day, we were at a stoplight and there were protesters holding up signs shouting at the cars as they passed by. My husband yelled to them, “What about justice for the unborn babies?” A few of them looked at him, then looked away. A man who looked to be the leader of the group yelled back, “How many babies have you adopted, and what about those children in cages?” as if we aren’t allowed to take a stand…
Recently, I talked with a young man. He was raised in a godly family. His family never celebrated any holidays and did very little for the birthdays. His parents thought holidays had become too secularized. He wants different for his family. His childhood blurs together since there were no special times to remember. There were no milestones to fondly look back on. One of my daughters was telling me of all the milestones she remembers from her childhood. She remembers…
“Oh, be careful little eyes what you see. Be careful little eyes what you see. There’s a Father up above looking down on you with love so be careful little eyes what you see.” This is a song that I learned as a child. I sang it yesterday while I was walking with my grandchildren. It reminded me that all of God’s commands to us are due to His great love for us. Sin hurts us and Satan wants to…
This post was written by Tim Keller in response to my post about female preachers. Men are designed by the Lord to fight for women, not with them. Most of the time when wives have an argument with their husband, the husband shuts down. This is a part of how the Lord programmed the male mind to help deescalate the conflict and control his emotions. Invariably, the wife misinterprets his silence as unloving, but the opposite is usually true. As…
“We women are the answer to virtually everything that ails society” (Jen Hatmaker). Jen may just be right about this! If women would stop having their babies slaughtered in their wombs, life would once again be valued and women would understand that it’s not about “my body, my choice” but about another human life’s well-being. If women would stop initiating up to 80 percent of divorces, then marriages would be stronger and children would be raised in homes with mothers…
This was written by a man on an Instagram post of mine about women going to war and the sexual harassment and assault that females are having to endure. The woman who wrote the Instagram post that I shared begged mothers to not allow their daughters go into the army because they “cannot be protected.” The battlefield is no place for a woman. This is not my opinion this is morality. God wants women to be keepers at home and…
