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 de-escalate 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…
As I have grown older, my convictions have grown stronger. When I was younger, I still had some strong convictions. I didn’t want my children to celebrate Halloween. I never trusted yoga as being something I could be involved with. I didn’t allow my children to read Harry Potter. I was careful which TV shows and movies they watched. I have always taken the command from God to be separate and holy seriously but my convictions have grown with age…
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16
Amelia Barr was a mother, widow, and writer. She lived from 1831 to 1919. I found out about her from Elizabeth Prata on her blog The End Times. Amelia wrote a piece called Discontented Women. Elizabeth used the parts of the piece concerning the discontentment women naturally have towards marriage, having children, and being homemakers. It’s not an easy piece to read since it was written long ago but well worth reading. I am sharing some excerpts that have to…
A supposedly “Christian” woman wrote this on Twitter recently: “Since conservative Christians keep coming at me. Here: “I am a Christian, and I believe proselytizing is violence against another. I am a Christian, and I believe LGBTQ+ ppl are divine and should lead us. I am a Christian, and I learn a lot from ppl who do not share my faith. “I am a Christian, and I don’t go to church. I am a Christian, and I don’t believe the…
