Answering All of the Exceptions

Answering All of the Exceptions

Whenever I write about almost anything, especially women being keepers at home and submitting to their husbands in everything, I undoubtedly receive a ton of questions concerning the exceptions; all of the “what ifs.” I have been pondering this a lot recently and there is no perfect answer for every exception. Each situation and circumstance is unique. This is why the godly, older women need to step up and be available to the women with the exceptions to guide them…

Women Divorcing Over Me Time

Women Divorcing Over Me Time

Up to 80 percent of divorces are initiated by women. The main reason is because these women want “me time.” They’re tired of sacrificially giving their lives to their families. It’s time for them to find “fulfillment” and experience life to its fullest, so they leave and destroy their children’s lives. Many of them have husbands who work hard to provide for them. Their husbands are faithful to them and love their children, but this just isn’t enough. There’s more…

The Ugliness of Divorce

The Ugliness of Divorce

Written By Pastor Matthew  Trewhella Divorce is an ugly thing. It mires the mind of a child. It leaves him ill­ prepared and at a distinct disadvantage with his peers for the life that lies ahead of him or her. It removes all innocence. What order his life once had is left strewn on the floor. The most foundational part of his life which gives cohesiveness to his existence is gone. Life no longer has the promise it once did….

Are You Living in a Cult?

Are You Living in a Cult?

Many are accusing the Duggars of living in a cult. I have a pamphlet that was published by Moody Publishers. It is called “Comparing Christianity with the Cults.” The cults they name are Christian Science, Spiritualism, Jehovah’s Witness, Scientology, Mormonism, Eastern Mystic Religions, Unification Church, Unity, and Wicca. I couldn’t find Gothard being a cult in this pamphlet or meeting the requirements needed to be labeled a cult. There are many families outside of following Gothard who homeschool their children,…

Husbands are Not Commanded to Meet Their Wives’ Emotional Needs

Husbands are Not Commanded to Meet Their Wives’ Emotional Needs

The Bible tells us that husbands are to love their wives as Christ loves the Church. They are to provide for and protect their wives. They are to not withhold sexual intimacy from them. They are to treat them as the weaker vessel. However, the Bible doesn’t say that husbands must meet their wives’ emotional needs and love their wives with the “love language” their wives demand. This is extra-biblical nonsense that is destroying marriages. I received an email recently…

Best Sermon on Biblical Womanhood EVER!!!

Best Sermon on Biblical Womanhood EVER!!!

Preached By G. Craige Lewis of EX Ministries. It’s the BEST sermon on biblical womanhood I have ever heard. “When the Bible tells the older women to teach, it doesn’t tell them to teach the Word. No, that’s my job. I’m doing that! It’s not biblical for women to gather and have other women teach you the Word. Every time that happens, we lose folks to it. The Bible tells older women exactly what to teach other women! How to…

The Curse of Emotional Needs

The Curse of Emotional Needs

Recently, I have been trying to convince women of the destruction of the phrase “emotional needs” in marriage. Women go into marriage believing that their husbands are to meet all of their emotional needs which are intangible. This is an impossibility for husbands and has led to many women divorcing their husbands. They falsely believe their husbands are to meet their emotional needs, love them with their love language, and make them happy, and if they don’t, they’re out. This…

Men, Marry Virgins Since the Risk of Divorce Plummets

Men, Marry Virgins Since the Risk of Divorce Plummets

“Wolfinger found a strong correlation among the three cohorts: women who married as virgins had the lowest divorce rates by far. In the 1980s, 11 percent of virgin marriages (on the women’s part) ended in divorce within five years. This decreased to eight percent in the 1990s, and then fell again to six percent in the 2000s. Similarly, women with the second lowest five-year divorce rates are those who had only one partner prior to marriage.” (source) A woman who…

What Does NOT Depriving One’s Husband Entail?

What Does NOT Depriving One’s Husband Entail?

Recently, Mountain Housewife tweeted this which caused quite a controversy. “Dear married ladies, your approach to sex should be ‘whatever, whenever, and wherever.’ Then watch your marriage and life thrive.” I then responded to her tweet on my timeline: “Do you agree with her? I love her and she gives great marital advice but I would never give this advice since some men enjoy sex that can be harmful (anal sex, for instance). Some young mothers could never fulfill the…

His Authority Over You

His Authority Over You

Many in the churches have watered down a husband’s authority over their wife. It’s too offensive to many, therefore, the solution is to call it complementarianism, have the husband called to “lead and serve” his wife, and do away with Patriarchy altogether. What does God have to say about this? “Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and…
