Working Mothers and Public Schools Produce Mentally Ill Children

Working Mothers and Public Schools Produce Mentally Ill Children

Comments 14 comments

Years ago, I read the book Home By Choiceby Dr. Brenda Hunter and she found that children who are home full time with their mothers have a much greater chance of growing up to be emotionally stable and secure. Children need and want their mothers all the time! This seems about right since God, our Creator, commands mothers to be keepers at home and have their children at home with them for very good reasons. All of His commands are…

The Devil Wants Women Out of the Home

The Devil Wants Women Out of the Home

Comments 7 comments

“Why does the devil want women out of the home? So he can get his claws on the children. He wants to steer them towards his ways. It’s the mother who protects the children from the lies of the deceiver” (Nancy Campbell). God is clear in His Word that He wants women to be keepers at home (Titus 2:5) but women rebel against this today. They don’t want to be keepers at home since this isn’t valued in our culture….

Why Are Children Leaving the Church in Droves?

Why Are Children Leaving the Church in Droves?

Comments 6 comments

The following was posted on Elisabeth Elliot Quotes on Facebook: A friend asked a thought provoking question today…“Why are our children leaving the church in droves?”I need to rent a soap box for this one! But here is my answer (for what it’s worth) and it’s just a small part of the answer. I see so many mistakes in young families these days, and I wish I could reach them and get them to listen. Child rearing and family life…

You would think I was evil for teaching younger women to be keepers at home and that mothers should be home for their children full time. This topic makes many women angriest, by far, of all the things that I write. They must not believe children are better with their mothers. They must not trust God enough to provide for them if they come home. Many believe they find satisfaction and fulfillment from a career. They think widows still should…

Older women are told to teach young women to be keepers at home but what about grandmothers? Are they to be keepers at home? Here is how God’s Word defines the role of older women: The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; That they may teach the young women…(Titus 2:3, 4). Well reported of for good works; if she have brought up children,…

There are many young “Christian” women bloggers these days who have huge followings. They write books and speak at conferences even though they are married and have children. Is this what God has called them to do? No, God has called them first and foremost to be a help meet to their husbands and then a mother to their children and finally, a keeper at home. It’s heady stuff having a lot of people reading what you’re writing. Yes, I…

Thanking God for Simple Pleasures

Thanking God for Simple Pleasures

Comments 4 comments

Written By Sunny Shell at Abandoned to Christ I love my life. I really do. What I love most may seem boring to many, and possibly absurd to others. But still, I love everything the Lord has given me–especially the simple,dailypleasures many miss because we think we deserve any good we receive. I love sunny days because they remind me of the warmth and awesomeness of God’s grace; His face that cannot be seen by any human lest we be…

There was a time when the prophet Elijah was grief-stricken and thought he was the only one who worshiped the one true God. “Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life” (Romans 11:3). How did God respond to him? “I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee tothe image ofBaal” (Romans 11:4). There will ALWAYS be a remnant, women. “Even so…

Yes, housework is good for us. It’s what God created for us to do! Everything God created is for our good. It doesn’t mean it will be easy or won’t involve suffering but it’s good. “It’s probably not the most popular piece of health advice ever dished out – but researchers say that doing the housework can add years to your life. They found that women who clean, hoover and do the laundry are likely to live almost three years…

Wifely Extravagance Destroys Homes

Wifely Extravagance Destroys Homes

“Wifely thriftlessness and extravagance have destroyed the happiness of many a household and wrecked many a home. On the other hand, many a man owes his prosperity to his wife’s prudence and her wise administration of household affairs.” (JR Miller) In pondering this statement, I thought about all of the women who are marrying their husbands with a boatload of debt due to their college education. They failed to ever consider what a burden this would place upon their future…
