Working Mothers Raise Better Children?

Working Mothers Raise Better Children?

A woman sent me an article and told me that I am dead wrong about working mothers. She linked an article called Working Moms Raise Better Kids.How are these kids better than stay-at-home moms’ children? “They found that the daughters of working mothers are actually more likely to be successful.That means they’re more likely to have jobs, be in positions of authority, and make more money than girls raised by non-working mothers.” Yes, if you are looking to raise children…

The Path to a Weak and Sinful Church

The Path to a Weak and Sinful Church

Most Christians are afraid to rebuke other Christians who are in sin. Most Christians hate being rebuked by others if they are in sin, therefore, there’s not much rebuking going on and many Christians who are in sin refuse to listen to rebukes. This is NOT how the Church of the Living God is supposed to operate. Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee (Proverbs 9:8). A wise person takes…

The Parable of the Public Poolers

The Parable of the Public Poolers

Once upon a time, in a place called America, someone had an idea. It was a bold plan, one that would alter the very social fabric of the nation. It wasn’t long before word of the idea began to spread, and many people thought it was simply marvelous. In due time, after enough support had been generated, the plan was put into action. At first glance, the plan seemed simple enough. Its proponents said it would be fair, free, and…

Cultivating a Love for Home in Your Daughters

Cultivating a Love for Home in Your Daughters

There’s something I have sadly noticed. There aren’t many young women who are good at being homemakers. They weren’t raised to keep their homes clean and tidy. They fail to look well to the ways of their household. No, they were raised to pursue a career, instead, since this has value in our culture and not homemaking. When they are home full time with their children, their homes are a mess and they don’t like to be home often. They…

Studying to Be Quiet

Studying to Be Quiet

This world is chaotic and noisy but we, as believers in Jesus Christ, are called to be peaceful and quiet. “And that ye study to be quiet and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you” (1 Thessalonians 4:11). How do we study to be quiet? “Orderly, peaceful; living in the practice of the calm virtues of life. The duty to which he would exhort them was that of being subordinate to…

No Ability to Be Good?

No Ability to Be Good?

In Titus 2:5, older women are commanded to teach young women to be “good.” Do young women have the ability to be good? In Romans 7, the Apostle Paul admits that he has no ability to be good: “For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. Now…

I Don’t Judge Women. Truth Judges Them.

I Don’t Judge Women. Truth Judges Them.

In our devotions the other day, we read these verses: “But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believes not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, HE IS JUDGED OF ALL: And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth” (1 Corinthians 14:24, 25). What does prophesy mean? We are answered in 1 Corinthians 14:3:…

Swift Punishment For Wrong Behavior is a Good Thing

Swift Punishment For Wrong Behavior is a Good Thing

Lenient discipline produces undisciplined children and countries. Strict discipline produces disciplined children and countries. I will give you an example of this from The Shaping of a Christian Family by Elisabeth Elliot. “Singapore is one of the cleanest, most efficiently managed, and drug-free cities in the world. Stamped across the entry visas in large red letters are these words: DEATH PENALTY FOR DRUG DEALING. It works. It not only saves the city for the citizens, but it saves many a…

The Old Paths are Best!

The Old Paths are Best!

Written By a Retired Minister in Tennessee I like the old paths… Moms were at home, dads were at work, Brothers went into the army and sisters got married BEFORE having children! Crime did not pay; hard work did And people knew the difference. Moms could cook, dads would work, And children behaved. Husbands were loving, wives were supportive And children were polite. Women wore the jewelry and men wore the pants. Women looked like ladies, men looked like gentlemen…

Healing Ulcerative Colitis Completely

Healing Ulcerative Colitis Completely

When I was five years old, my mom got Ulcerative Colitis and would spend weeks in bed. Ulcerative Colitis is when the colon (the large intestine) is badly damaged and bleeds. Doctors told my mom that there was no cure and told her to eat only white things (white bread, white rice, and white potatoes). They also gave her some drugs. She tried this for a while but only got sicker. She began to read every book she could find…
