Last Sunday, our church held their service on the beach at Lake Michigan. We are in Door County, WI where we’ve come almost every summer since I was a child. My grandpa built a cabin up here in 1959 and then my dad built one right next door thirty years ago so we’ve always loved coming here. During the service, there was an older man with long, gray hair in front of us sitting next to his wife who had…
We all have the freedom to choose whether or not we will be a good or bad wife. Each morning, we wake up and can decide if we will control our emotions and feelings or not. We can choose to be thankful or complain. It’s our choice, and as godly women, our choice should be to please the LORD in all that we do by walking in the Spirit instead of the flesh. The Bible gives us examples of good…
Older women are to teach the young women to love their husbands. This does not come naturally or easily for most women. They look and act their best before marriage, but after marriage, many no longer care about looking or acting their best for their husbands. Instead, they spend their time being angry and upset with their husbands because their husbands are not living up to their expectations, and the wives fail to realize that love is a commitment and…
Written By Robin Jennifer I just want to encourage any wife who is standing for her marriage in the face of infidelity. Personally, I know the pain, as this is why I divorced my first husband twenty-three years ago, (and at the time, in my ignorance, I felt completely justified). He went on to marry The Other Woman (or the “strange” woman, as the Bible calls them) after our divorce was final; I may never know if he may have…
Guest Post by Celina Hernandez Not long ago, it was the norm in America (and still is in a good part of the world) to be having sex (and having children) at sixteen years old. Our grandparents (or great-grandparents for the younger ladies) were married with several children by the time they were 19-20. And so it has been since the dawn of time up until about 50 years ago. A while back, I was thumbing through my mom’s senior-high…
The defrauding of one’s husband of sexual intimacy had severe consequences back in the day. A wife who deprived her husband was called rebellious, then sent away and was left destitute. As believers in Jesus Christ, we should never take any of God’s commands to us lightly or frivolously; for we are promised that we will reap what we sow. All of the biblical translations use the word “deprive” in 1 Corinthians 7:5 except the KJV, which uses the word…
It’s a fact: men are more visual than woman. I read that one woman told her husband that she has never been attracted to another man and her husband responded, “Neither have I!” Women can see a man without a shirt on and admire his physique but as one woman shared in the chat room (who has a very honest husband) that when he sees a beautiful and immodestly dressed woman he mentally undresses her and pictures himself having sex…
For the past six years, I have published a post almost every day. I love writing, researching, and mentoring women in the ways of godly womanhood. The past few days, my viral post has gone viral again, and a few other posts have as well. As of right now, my Facebook page has received two and a half million hits. I want to discuss one of the posts that has gone viral since I am being accused of promoting marital…
If you are married to a disobedient husband, you are not alone! Read about Abigail’s husband.Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail: and she was a woman of good understanding, and of a beautiful countenance: but the man was churlish and evil in his doings; and he was of the house of Caleb(1 Samuel 25:3). I loved the description of Abigail so I thought I would study it further since she didn’t…
“The kids are socially invisible. If they have a problem, we take them to therapy. We put them on medication. But we never admit that maybe the adults should have worked as hard on their marriages as they seem to work on managing their divorce. And we certainly never tell the adults not to remarry,” wrote Jennifer Roback Morse in her article Divorce Enablers: The Liberal Fantasy World is Wrecking Children’s Lives. “In the Divorce Fantasy World, the children are…
