Bernard O’Reilly shares in his book from 1886 titled The Mirror of True Womanhood a story of a young wife who had a husband who was very prosperous in his business. They had six beautiful children, and she was known for her kindness and cheerfulness. Her husband’s business, unfortunately, took a dramatic turn for the worse and he was nervous about telling his wife about it. Many of his friends offered to give him money to support their lifestyle but…
This post is from a YouTube video by Traditional Catholic Faith and Morals. It is biblically accurate and worth sharing. I took snippets out of it so it’s not the entire video. A stay-at-home mom is often viewed by career women as being a slave, a victim, and having no life. Many feminists view children as a nuisance, a hindrance to personal success; thus, many blinded women have chosen not to get married, not to bear children, and not to…
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 Trey A Christian man can train himself and his eyes not to look at and lust after another woman, but I will tell you the best way that a wife can help her husband to win in this never-ending battle. By being obedient to Scripture, she actually can make it easy for him to not be tempted to look at and lust after other women. If she is disobedient to the scripture, she makes it much more difficult…
Did you know that the modern feminist movement began with three women who had terrible childhoods? “How ironic that these three intelligent women (Betty Friedan, Germaine Greer, and Gloria Steinem), none of whom is currently married, have so influenced our current notions of family and motherhood” (Dr. Brenda Hunter). In the chat room, we have been discussing the book Home By Choice by Dr. Hunter. If you ever want to be convinced of the value of mothers at home with…
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…
How does a woman tear down her own home? For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work (James 3:16). This woman is not content with what she has and does not live within her husband’s income but is constantly lusting for more when she sees what others have on Instagram, Facebook, and the fixer up shows on television. She has not learned godliness with contentment but is always searching for ways to spend more money…
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…
