Women Being Forced Back Into Domesticity

Women Being Forced Back Into Domesticity

“It’s been five weeks since lockdown began but editors of academic journals have already started noticing a strange phenomenon: women seem to be submitting fewer papers than usual while men are submitting more. According to the American writer Caroline Kitchener, some female academics say they are struggling to balance full-on childcare and home schooling with work, while their male counterparts are viewing quarantine as a chance to focus on their writing projects…The coronavirus may be more deadly for men but…

Hmm, Children are Thriving Being Home With Their Mothers

Hmm, Children are Thriving Being Home With Their Mothers

The government has mandated God’s will for women and children. Mothers are home full time with their children and many mothers are now homeschooling their children. No one could have predicted something like this happening. All I know is that God’s ways are best. It’s best for mothers and children to be home with each other. God has ordained mothers to raise their own children. There’s an article in the New York Post called “Coronavirus is providing the course correction…

Ill-Prepared to Be Wives, Mothers, and Keepers at Home

Ill-Prepared to Be Wives, Mothers, and Keepers at Home

God commands older women to teach young women to love their husbands and children and be keepers at home (Titus 2:3-5). He commands that young widows marry, bear children, and guide the home (1 Timothy 5:14). It seems to me that God’s will for young women is to marry, bear children, and guide the home, therefore, I will continue to teach this since His will is best. Most young women are very well prepared to be career women but ill-prepared…

Daycares and Elementary Schools are Empty

Daycares and Elementary Schools are Empty

A few people have scolded me for “enjoying” what is happening to America right now. Am I enjoying it? I know without a doubt that God is allowing this to happen. He is sovereign over all. He promises us that ALL things work together for good to those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. He commands that we walk by faith instead of by fear. We are to trust Him and know that He uses our…

Women Now Living Simply at Home

Women Now Living Simply at Home

“Women should be required to stay home permanently after this. Give their jobs, that they now don’t have, to some fathers and husbands who need them. God finally forced what is natural because women won’t choose to do it. And they are all finding out they don’t HAVE to work. Yank the money away and they are still surviving on one income. No more excuses.” This was a comment from a man on my Facebook page. His comment has a…

Most Women Don’t Prepare to Be Keepers at Home

Most Women Don’t Prepare to Be Keepers at Home

Undoubtedly, whenever I write about women being keepers at home and raising their own children, I receive comments from women about how wrong I am to teach this and then proceed to give me all of the exceptions as if their exceptions negate truth and what is best for the children. Here is a case in point from my Facebook page: Krystal Rasmussen wrote: “What does it say about women in the workforce? Well Lori, some of us have no…

The Heartbroken Career Woman

The Heartbroken Career Woman

This post contains notes I took from a video by Jennifer Morse from “The Ruth Institute.” “We must clean up the mess from the sexual revolution. These are the victims of the sexual revolution: 1) Children of divorce (no-fault divorce); 2) Reluctantly divorced (One party doesn’t want to get divorced but the government sides with the one who wants the divorce.); 3) Donor conceived persons; 4) The hook-up culture; 4) Heartbroken career women. “The heartbroken career women have it all:…

Activities While Being “Stuck” at Home

Activities While Being “Stuck” at Home

We all are stuck at home right now. This is a new concept for many people. For many years, I was stuck at home since I was so sick but now we all are choosing to be stuck at home to try and prevent the spread of this virus. Many mothers who work full time away from their homes are experiencing something they’ve never experienced before – being home with their children 24/7. I asked the women in the chat…

No, I Have NO Hatred For Working Mothers

No, I Have NO Hatred For Working Mothers

A few years ago, I have had fun creating flow charts to show the consequences of our choices. Since I don’t have a lot of room, I create a general consequence to each choice. Of course, it can’t encapsulate every consequence for every choice of every person but they are created more to give pause to women for the choices they make, and hopefully cause them to think that they may be on the wrong track biblically. Here is a…

She Stretches Her Husband’s Hard Earned Income

She Stretches Her Husband’s Hard Earned Income

She is an amazing woman who made an incredibly long comment on my post Making It On One Income. (You might want to go read it along with all the other wonderful comments!) She does everything she can to live within her husband’s income even if it means sacrificing some of the pleasures in life. Most women today simply put things on their credit card, thus digging their family deeper and deeper into debt. This is NOT a good way…
