In 1958 (the year I was born), my grandpa bought a piece of land in the forests of Wisconsin on Lake Michigan. He built a cabin on the land where we spent our summers with all of our relatives. These are my favorite childhood memories! We had no TV or Internet, so we talked, played, swam, hiked, and just had fun together. About 38 years ago (the year my oldest daughter was born), my dad bought the cabin next door…
Written By Nancy Campbell at Above Rubies Year after year, Noah did the same old thing–hammered, nailed, and kept on building his ark. Bible commentators suggest different lengths of time for Noah to build the ark, but most believe it was between 50 to 80 years of his life! He did not have time to do all the things that everyone else was doing. He just kept on slogging and being faithful, doing the same thing every day for all…
From a post by Connie Hultquist titled Do Not Mother Your Husband Dear Wives, I have a bit more time to write, so I wanted to share some thoughts on men of God. Don’t mother your husband. Let him be responsible for his own sins. Don’t be like Moses and stand between God’s wrath and the sinners. Get out of the way, and let God deal with your husband. And how does this work? Quit being the Holy Spirit to…
Jeremy Vuolo wrote in a journal years ago what he wanted in a wife and shared it in his new book, “The Hope We Hold.” This is what he wrote: “Lord, bring me a partner, please. One who is in love with Christ, with a visible passion, humble, meek, willing to forsake all to follow wherever You lead us. Not consumed with money and comfort; A wartime mentality. A servant, strong in faith. Walks consistently by faith. Lover of children….
Years ago when I was a teacher, I taught in a very poor section of the San Fernando Valley. My first year of teaching was a sixth grade class. I had one girl in my class who threw tantrums on a regular basis and would storm out of the classroom. She made teaching miserable for me. One afternoon when all of the children were gone, a gang of guys walked in to my room and I could tell they were…
Written By Holly Bennington I am so thankful I get to be a new mama again at 38. I am so thankful that the Lord opened my eyes and heart to His truth about children and childbearing over a decade ago when he showed me (through people, books, and mostly through His Word), that I could trust Him completely with my fertility (which He so perfectly created and blessed within marriage) and His perfect timing, and that it would be…
Matthew West made a song titled “Modest is Hottest.” He created and sang it for his daughters. “The jokey, satiric song urged his young daughters to choose ensembles that are a ‘little more Amish, a little less Kardashian’ because ‘modest is hottest, then latest fashion trend.’ Elsewhere in the video, West said, ‘If I catch you doing dances on the TikTok in a crop top, so help me God you’ll be grounded till the world stops.’” Matthew West then took…
God commands that we FLEE fornication, because it is a sin against one’s own body (1 Corinthians 6:18). It’s vitally important to teach your daughters to remain sexually pure until marriage. I have written about this before. Today, I am going to teach you how to teach your sons to flee from harlots. There are many these days. Feminism has turned women into harlots. First, you must help them to hide God’s Word in their hearts, so that they will…
“My ex-wife and I were both raised to believe that men and women should be equal, and both partners should be working. It was detrimental to our children and relationship.” This was a comment left on my video “Women are No Longer Marriage Material.” Most children are being raised to believe that men and women should be equal and as “partners.” They should both be working outside of the home. This makes life much more difficult on everyone when there…
On my Instagram stories last week, I had a question and answer time. I let women ask me anything. One woman asked me about post-partum depression. I answered that I believe a lot of it is due to lack of sleep. This is why we sleep trained our children as young babies. We used the cry-it-out method. Some women scolded me. They also scolded me for other things I said were okay, such as circumcising one’s son, drinking a little…
