Confronting our husbands’ sin respectfully is hard. I want to try to give you all the tools I can on this. Scripture I… Continue reading Confronting Our Husbands about Their Sin – VIDEO

Respecting Our Husbands as Fathers – Part 2
For Part 1, please click here. CHILDREN LEARN SUBMISSION TO GOD-GIVEN AUTHORITY FROM THE WAY THEIR MOTHERS TREAT THEIR FATHERS I was shocked.

Ambition and Being “Driven” Can Be Good – If…
Nothing is wrong with a woman being ambitious and driven – provided that she is ambitious and driven in obeying God, submitting to Him and living in His power for His glory.
