Wifehood

I’ve been in full-time ministry for many, many years now. Ministry to my husband. Ministry to my children. Ministry within my home and outside of my home. I’m tired of serving others all in the name of Jesus Christ. I’m tired of being rejected and persecuted for my faith. I’m tired of living through trials…

I’ve been wrestling with some thoughts lately, thoughts that seem to go against the norm of the Christian culture, thoughts that challenge me and stretch me to the core.  Perhaps these thoughts that have been swirling in my brain will challenge you in your walk?  Maybe they’ll further you towards Christ as well?

I love to read books, I always have even when I was younger.  When I was unsaved, I read mostly romance novels- which isn’t a wise path, by the way, and a path that I wouldn’t encourage anyone to take; whether one is single or married. Now, I know there are Christian romance novels that…

He told you to go take charge of something and lead it, oversee it, and be completely…

We were married for all of two days.  My dreamy husband and I were off to play a fun game of tennis in the wonderful sunshine of Maui, Hawaii.  I didn’t know how to play tennis, in fact, I didn’t even know how to keep score, yet, I owned a racket because I thought the…

It was over 14 years ago when I stood in that checkout line with the man I was engaged to be married to.  As we stood there waiting our turn for our groceries to be rung up, my Beloved noticed the tabloid magazines on display.  One had a caption that read, “Why Get Married.”  My…
