  I have been doing an amazing Kay Arthur study on prayer with a ladies’ group at my church this summer called, “Lord, teach me to pray.” I love Kay her point (pg. 54): “And what is the root of all sin? Is it not independence? Is it not self having its own way?” She goes […]

“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. Matthew 7:13-14 I am sure that I don’t have to tell you […]

Our daughter and I watched a show with a cat behaviorist, Jackson Galaxy, together last week. The cat owner was a famous young woman who often tweeted about her cat and used some dreadful names for him in her tweets. Galaxy said something so profound: Words have power.

For those who are unfamiliar with this term – “hooking up” means having sex with someone you may not even really know, with “no strings attached.” i.e.: “We just met today, but let’s hook up later tonight.” I know that many girls (and guys) have never known anything but this culture that exists today.

A reader allowed me to share her comments from “Godly Femininity – Part 1.” Thank you, my sweet sister!!!! Please note ladies, this is an example where the husband did not purposely try to hurt his wife. READER: So humbling…… Yesterday, I did so poorly with my dear husband. We got into a bad argument […]

The Idol of Happiness

September 24, 2014 by

We tend to think that “idolatry” means someone bowing down to a statue and praying to it in a shrine. It’s really easy to dismiss that practice as not even remotely a temptation to us today in our culture and to discount everything the Bible says about idolatry as being irrelevant to us. Big mistake!
