The other day on Facebook, I posted a tweet comparing the cost of living in the 1970s to life in 2021. Homes are much larger now. Most families own two cars which are expensive with the upkeep and insurance, whereas they used to own one. More women are using daycare rather than staying home with their children. There was no cell phones and limited cable. People didn’t eat out like they do now and vacations weren’t often. The needs were…
Written By Michael Foster on Twitter In 1963 Betty Friedan wrote the The Feminine Mystique. It described a widespread discontent among women. She concludes her first chapter with: “We can no longer ignore that voice within women that says: ‘I want something more than my husband and my children and my home.’” What was the “something more?” Friedan claimed it was a career. “The problem that has no name” stemmed for a woman’s single path of fulfillment namely being a…
Preached By Justin Peters at Grace Community Church Hearing from Heaven. Hearing from Heaven. How does God speak to us today? Undoubtedly, you have heard people say this: “Well, God has spoken to me and He’s told me that you are to do such and such. Pastor, God has spoken to me and He’s told me to tell you that our church needs to go this direction.” And it is just ubiquitous out there in the evangelical world – whatever…
On Instagram last week, I shared a tweet of mine and below it I wrote out Titus 2:3-5. “The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.” One…
“Our culture chews up women and spits them out, and it mostly uses the woman’s own choices to do it. In particular, the feminist message – to seek career over marriage, have lots of promiscuous sex, live with men without making a commitment, put off childbearing, take birth control that messes up your hormones to make sure you don’t accidentally get pregnant during a decade or more of premarital sex, and get an abortion if you do get pregnant before…
Jill Filipovic wrote a diatrabe basically arguing that working mothers are better for children on Twitter the other day. Her words are in quotes. Mine follow. “And now I am really going to get myself yelled at, but I also think the issue of example setting for a kid is a totally fair one. What example are you setting when dad works for pay and mom does the care work at home? Lots of reasons not to want to set…
⨠Yesterday, I proved that women overwhelmingly reject being taught to learn what pleases their husbands and to be sexually available to them no matter who delivers the message or how it’s delivered. ⨠First, I shared a post with my write up and a link to the pastor who preached on this topic. Women were furious with him and me for even pointing out the good things he taught, even though I shared the things I disagreed with. ⨅
There’s a viral video of a pastor who actually preached to wives. This is SO uncommon. How many of you have ever heard a sermon preached to only wives by a man? So, here’s one who finally does and explains clearly men’s battle and what they would love from their wives, then he gets blistered. Sure, he could have stated some things a bit differently and left out a few things, but over all, he was spot on. The title…
“Gender roles mean nothing and gender is a societal construct that is disappearing” (Dana Janusz). This is what is actually being promoted in our culture these days. There is no male or female. Everyone, including children, get to decide what gender they want to be. The is the end result of feminism. Women didn’t just want equality with men. They want to be superior to them. Now, it’s come around to bite them. Feminism is reaping its ugly fruit. Biological…
Every week, I pick up one of my children’s four children and have them over for the day. This is to give my DIL a break, and I enjoy having them. We work puzzles and I read to them, but we mostly are outside in the front where many of the neighborhood children come to play too. Whenever I have a set of the grandchildren here, my oldest daughter will drop off her 18 month old son, since he loves…
