When He Suddenly Walks Out or Hangs Up

Ladies, Many of us have experienced something like this with our men – “Things seemed to be going great!  My husband was talking, calling or texting with me when, seemingly out of nowhere, he storms out of the room or hangs up on me.” WHAT ON EARTH JUST HAPPENED? WHAT WE USUALLY DO Most wives panic… Continue reading When He Suddenly Walks Out or Hangs Up

Can You “Overdo” Respect or Submission in Marriage?

Humanly speaking… YES! Anytime God gives us a command, we as humans are tempted to go way too far to the right of the command or way too far to the left.  There is this beautiful, godly place in the center where God desires us to be.  I think of it as walking on a… Continue reading Can You “Overdo” Respect or Submission in Marriage?

“Why Won’t He Protect Me from His/My Family?”

My hope is to point women to Christ and His Word. I don’t write for men because Scripture admonishes women not to teach or have authority over men. This does not mean that the Bible doesn’t apply to men or that they are off the hook with God. Husbands are more accountable to God for their love and… Continue reading “Why Won’t He Protect Me from His/My Family?”

Biblical Submission Begins “Not My will, but Yours be done”  Luke 22:42 Jesus, though He was fully God and equal to God the Father – submitted Himself to God’s authority out of His love for the Father.  Submission began among equals and was born from holy love.
