“Hath God Said…?”

“Hath God Said…?”

Comments 17 comments

“Satan knows how to deceive her. She has a questioning spirit and a seducing spirit. ‘Hath God said…?’ (Genesis 3:1). There is confusion from women leaving their supportive role as a mother and seeking a career with devastating results.” These words were spoken by Denny Kenaston in his sermon “The Hidden Woman.” Women question God’s Word constantly. They don’t want to do God’s will for their lives, so they listen to women preachers/teachers/bloggers/writers that tickle their ears. These female preachers…

Are You Living Like a Bag Lady?

Are You Living Like a Bag Lady?

Comments 1 comment

Written By Ray Ortlund Recently the New York City Police Department investigated a tragic death. Sprawled in a filthy back alley lay an old “bag lady” who had finally lost her battle with life. For years, she’d kept her body going by stealing the leftovers off plates in restaurants – but the more efficient the restaurants became, the more those food scraps were denied her. At last her frail, dirty shell gave up. Then the newspapers revealed the news: Investigations…

Your Kids Should Not Be the Most Important

Your Kids Should Not Be the Most Important

Comments 4 comments

Written By John Rosemond in Naples Daily News I recently asked a married couple who have three kids, none of whom are yet teens, “Who are the most important people in your family?” Like all good moms and dads of this brave new millennium, they answered, “Our kids!” “Why?” I then asked. “What is it about your kids that gives them that status?” And like all good moms and dads of this brave new millennium, they couldn’t answer the question…

Tired of a Filthy Home?

Ken and I love to walk along the beach. On Sunday night, we walked along the beach to our favorite little hole-in-the-wall restaurant where we sat outside on the patio with the late afternoon sun on our faces and we watched one of the waitresses tidying up the patio by fluffing and arranging the pillows. She worked on making it look clean and tidy. We eventually struck up a conversation with her and she told us that she is an…

Depression and Suicide is Skyrocketing Among Women

“The suicide rate is up 63% for women aged 45-65 and up 200% for girls aged 10-14,” wrote Jamieson Webster, a clinical psychologist, in her article Why are Suicides in Women Rising?Why is this happening so dramatically in women? “Many patients struggle in their role as women, something that has taken on a particular exigency because of drastic changes in gender dynamics. The women I see are often anxious and cannot reconcile ideas concerning work and family, what it is…

Bringing Clarity to Women in Ministry

One man tried to convince me that women should be able to preach and teach men from an article written by David Scholer at Fuller Seminar called Women in Ministry. I handed this over to Ken to answer! Lori asked me to take your comment. I was accepted at both Fuller and Talbot back in in 1979 and chose Talbot over Fuller precisely because Fuller, was in my opinion, and that of many other Christians, joining the Slippery Slope warned…

Anything That Attacks the Family is Bad For Society

Anything That Attacks the Family is Bad For Society

Comments 16 comments

The family is under attack today (as I have written repeatedly about) and no nation can last for long if the institution of the family is destroyed. Dale Ahlquist wrote about this destruction and some prophetic sayings of G.K. Chesterton, who was a theologian in the early 1900s. (I enjoy these men’s teachings from long ago!) “Chesterton was so consistently right in his pronouncements and prophecies because he understood that anything that attacked the family was bad for society. That…

Feminism Leads to Barrenness and Infertility

Feminism Leads to Barrenness and Infertility

Comments 42 comments

“Once upon a time, women wanted to get married and have kids. They wanted other things too, but marriage and motherhood was first on the list. As a result of this natural desire, women needed to find a ‘marriageable’ man, aka a good man who could also make a comfortable living. This arrangement allowed women to raise their children without the burden of earning an income. Men understood this arrangement, and, seeing as they aren’t the ones who bear children,…

Make Sure Your Heart is Happy in God!

Make Sure Your Heart is Happy in God!

Written by Anne Ortlund If any depression, any sadness, is longer than brief, it starts to become your very dangerous enemy. Many people don’t realize what a threat sadness it – and any danger which is unrecognized as a danger is all the more dangerous. There is no stigma against sadness. There is no embarrassment, no alarm, no rushing to the Lord to eliminate it. But God’s Word says, The joy of the Lord is your strength. (Nehemiah 8:10) And…

Her Sixteen Year Old Wants to Begin Having Sex

Her Sixteen Year Old Wants to Begin Having Sex

Comments 8 comments

For years, I listened to the Dr. Laura radio program. She had a lot of good things to say. Yesterday, on her Facebook page, she shared a conversation she had with a mother whose sixteen-year-old daughter wants to begin having sex since everyone else is doing it. Here is Dr. Laura’s response. If she says everyone is having sex, then say: I want you to be the only non-slut in the group. I want you to be the only girl…
