Working Mothers and Public Schools Produce Mentally Ill Children

Working Mothers and Public Schools Produce Mentally Ill Children

Years ago, I read the book Home By Choice by 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…

Do You Have a Cheerful Home?

Do You Have a Cheerful Home?

The other night, my husband and I went for a walk on the beach and ate at a new “health” food restaurant. After I sat down, I noticed one woman in particular. She smiled warmly at me then I watched her on and off while we were eating. When her husband came to her table, she smiled warmly at him, and often throughout the time they were there. She put her arm around him and kissed him a few times….

His Children Will Not Ride the Train to Hell

His Children Will Not Ride the Train to Hell

When I was growing up in the 60s and mid-70s, there were things I wish my parents had protected me from. They grew up way before the 60s and times were definitely more innocent then. Everyone knew it was shameful to have sex before marriage. Modesty was in fashion and women mostly wore dresses. When my mom when on a date, she didn’t have to worry about the guy trying to get something from her at the end. My parents…

The Devil Wants Women Out of the Home

The Devil Wants Women Out of the Home

“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….

Are Homeschooling Mothers Arrogant and Not Intelligent?

Are Homeschooling Mothers Arrogant and Not Intelligent?

On a recent post about homeschooling (which had some great discussion in the comment section you may want to read), one comment written by Jessica, a mother of ten children, stood out to me that was in response to this comment made by Michelle. “I am a teacher in a Christian school. The reason we chose not to homeschool is that we want our children taught by qualified instructors. I have a K-6 Certification with an endorsement in Middle School…

She’ll Get Fat and He’ll Have a New Boss

She’ll Get Fat and He’ll Have a New Boss

“My mom gained 90 lbs after marrying my dad. My wife gained 40 lbs the first year of our marriage. Some women chop their hair in half the first year of getting married. Some women want $80K vehicles every several years and $1 million houses ($2 million after interest and another million after property taxes over 30 yrs). “American women are bossier than women in other countries, more expensive, more overweight, more likely to file for divorce and leave husbands…

Why Are Children Leaving the Church in Droves?

Why Are Children Leaving the Church in Droves?

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 soapbox 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 just aren’t…

Why I Don’t Make a Disclaimer on Every Post About Submission

Why I Don’t Make a Disclaimer on Every Post About Submission

Whenever I write about submission, women tend to come up with all of the exceptions, mostly, “What if he asks you to sin?” One woman wrote, “I almost agree with this article, but find it strange that she doesn’t make a simple disclaimer that we are not to submit to our husbands if they are asking us to sin or break the law. We are first and foremost subject to Christ. I agree that 99.9% of the time, there is…

Are You Walking Forward or Backwards?

Are You Walking Forward or Backwards?

All throughout the Old Testament, God’s people were blessed when they lived in obedience to Him and were punished when they lived in disobedience to Him. Yes, He wants our obedience because He knows that His ways are best for us just as we know that we want our children to obey us because we know that our ways are best for them. Why would it be any different with our Heavenly Father? I am reading through Jeremiah. All throughout…

The Mother is the One Supreme Asset of National Life

The Mother is the One Supreme Asset of National 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…
