Not long ago I taught a woman’s Bible study on the topic of Deception and Discernment and wanted to share a bit of that with you: One of the most infamous and well-known quotes of the century for woman: “I am woman, hear me roar!” The world has colorfully painted a picture of what women [...]

There is a gross misconception about the “harmless” exposure to the messages bombarding our children through music, television and peers. (Whatever things are TRUE, PURE, JUST, HONEST, VIRTUOUS, PRAISEWORTHY, LOVELY…) Read more

Mothers today face some unique challenges it seems were not a problem in previous generations. I don’t remember my mother ever needing to wade through racks full of skirts that had barely as much fabric as a handkerchief, or pink hotpants with a glittering slogan to cover my ten-year-old behind. Mothers of girls these days [...]

From Mercatornet: An Australian study has set the traditional-role-division cat among the gender equality pigeons: the tide of opinion seems to have swung against the feminist ideal of an equal division of domestic and market work between husbands and wives…. [S]upport has stalled for the proposition that ”ideally there should be as many women as [...]

Having too many people on the planet is no longer demographers’ chief worry; now, having too few is… The trick will be restoring what, in the days of family-owned farms and small businesses, was once true: that babies are an asset rather than a burden. Imagine a society in which parents get to keep more [...]

“He shall feed his flock like a shepherd: He shall gather the lambs with His arm, and carry them in His bosom, and shall gently lead those who are with young.” Isaiah 40:11 I have to admit, these words didn’t mean that much to me when I was a college girl singing the piece from [...]

Modern-day Christian parents can’t figure out why their children are turning away from God in droves and rejecting the faith they were raised with, and it’s not uncommon to hear older couples in churches speak with regret about their children “who aren’t following the Lord.” Bewilderment and confusion surrounds their thinking as they try to [...]

Religious feminists will sometimes squawk in protest that, “I am NOT a Feminist, humph. I am an EGALITARIAN!” which seems rather ironic, given that at least one well-known egalitarian Internet gathering spot has seven levels of hierarchy. Nevertheless, feminist is what they are. One particular nail in that definitional coffin is what I will call, [...]

For over half a century, the population control movement has waged war on human fertility. Originally a fringe movement driven by fear of a “population explosion,” especially among peoples of color, the movement has over the years gained clout, if not respectability. Over the decades, the movement has increasingly used the environment as a pretext [...]

This comes from an excellent piece by Mary R. Hasson over at Mercatornet: Many of today’s kids seem to be flunking the daily moral tests of life. James, a teacher-friend of mine, lamented recently how “morally challenged” his high school students seem to be. “They don’t think twice about lying or slamming someone’s reputation. Cheating [...]

After my tubal ligation, and experiencing profound sadness for having a procedure that took my fertility away, I began studying the history behind the birth control movement. I found that the seeds of birth control were rooted in the soil of feminism. I also found that birth control was a stepping stone to abortion. Birth control had [...]

The nation’s largest abortion business is one of the biggest promoters of contraception and birth control and makes money from doing more than one-fourth of the nation’s abortions. Despite that, several Planned Parenthood affiliates have received federal funding for “teen pregnancy prevention.” When President Barack Obama gained control of the White House, he moved quickly [...]
