I wanted to talk about some things submission in marriage taught me about influence and power. In the beginning of our marriage, my submission see-sawed at times between passivity, which is not biblical submission, and just plain refusal to submit. However, I was definitely trying to avoid a...

I love modest clothing. Truly. I have never felt restricted by it. It just adds beauty. I've never felt like it took it away. There are so many affordable options and secondhand clothes can look brand new. There are a lot of ways to modify clothes you already own to make them more modest.

If I had to come up with a reason for husbands and good men to be respected that wasn't strictly Scripture, I would say this: For man to love and care for anyone other than himself almost always includes a degree of pain, risk, and danger. To work to provide for a family will eventualy return...

My husband does this for me. It's so great. He can just be bad cop. It's easy for him. I get to remain the soft one that way. Independence is sooo wonderful till you realize you are facing all of life's issues by yourself and no one has to help you deal with it all. You're both the captain and...

The suffrage movement did not represent the views of most women themselves at the time. Most women were not involved because they saw voting and political involvement as a distraction from domestic influence and community involvement in the ways they enjoyed. When I say I reject feminism, I...

I have a naturally agreeable nature at times. Often, I have found myself wishing I were less soft around people. Soft people are often seen as stupid and targets to be taken advantage of. Many friends have tried. Some succeeded. But maybe it's not such a bad thing to be soft. I have strong...

@MA2444 @VictoryinJesus Both of you have posted a lot that leave me deeply encouraged this morning. Thank you and God bless!

I am unsure but I hope this is right. Sometimes I feel like I am not the ideal Titus 2 type mentor because of my age and season in life. My children are still young, and I lack some of that "veteran status." But when examples are needed, I definitely don't feel led to dismiss my own. A lot of...

I'm really glad, Sis! Thanks for sharing and listening!

No, you're right!. As my family would say, now we're cookin' with grease! We fight not against flesh and blood...

There is a lot of evil around us today. In the U.S, it looks like a dreadful economy, inflation, political corruption, civil unrest, and rumors of war. What is my plan to deal with it? Am I going to glue my eyes to the news till Im horrified and stressed? Should I go march against the evil...

Being young definitely lends itself to boldness. But one of my favorite mentors is a grandmother with a very bible-centered online ministry. Lori Alexander is, I believe 64 years old with four children and many grandkids. She has become well known for teaching Titus 2 principles and embracing...
