Grace Widows: The Attack on Godly Seed (Part 3)

Continued from Part 2, Grace Widows: A Scarlet Letter

“My people are bent on backsliding from Me. Though they call to the Most High, none at all exalt Him.” (Hosea 11:7)

This verse should get our attention. Those of us who call on the name of the Lord, are we faithful? Do we truly exalt him in word and deed? In the second chapter of Malachi, the Israelites weep and groan over …

Grace Widows: A Scarlet Letter (Part 2)

Continued from Grace Widows: Hope and Healing for the Forsaken – (Part 1)

This is a doctrine that is putting men and women into life-long bondage, sentencing children to single-parent families, and destroying the opportunity for future Covenant children! We need to pay attention and address this issue biblically!

Sadly, many times, the victim of adultery and abandonment is left alone feeling fearful and confused. For a woman, her fears may be …

Grace Widows: Hope and Healing for the Forsaken (Part 1)


“The Lord has been witness between you and the wife of your youth, with whom you have dealt treacherously; yet she is your companion and your wife by covenant.” (Malachi 2:14)

Rolling away from the morning sunlight that invaded her bedroom, Shelly closed her eyes in protest. Out of habit, her hand stroked the spot where her husband, Carl, used to sleep. The sheets felt empty and cold. When would …

Sally “Used to be” a Legalist…

An Expose’ of the Legalistic Anti-Legalist:

While *true* legalism is a real issue, these days, anyone with any sort of convictions may be accused of legalism. How can a “legalism hunter” actually be a true legalist in disguise and how do they choose who goes on their hit list? Here’s my take:

Sally used to be a legalist. After being enamored with a particular teacher/preacher (whatever!), she decided she wanted to be just …

Persecution? Are you Serious?

Here is my response to the following question, originally asked in my last post, Persecuted…by Christians?

“What does persecution by other Christians look like? In fact, what does persecution itself look like in America? This is a question I have often thought to myself and would be interested in hearing the answer, because I honestly don’t know.

I have had people tell me I was stupid for being …

Persecution from…Christians?

I Thank Thee Sire But Thou art making me, I thank Thee, sire.
What Thou hast done and doest Thou know’st well.
And I will help Thee; gently in Thy fire
I will lie burning; on Thy potter’s wheel
I will whirl patient, though my brain should reel.
Thy grace shall be enough the grief to quell,
And growing strength perfect through weakness dire.

~ GEORGE MACDONALD

Wow! How many of …

A Right Focus…

The following paragraphs came from part of a response I received from a woman who took issue with my critique of a particular book, a book I’d prefer not to publicize by mentioning its name (as you know, bad press is better than no press). I believe this book tears down and divides the Body of Christ. Not only that, but, it places an additional burden on true victims of abuse …

The Little Things…

The following article was written by my sweet daughter, Christa. Here, she shares with you her struggle with discontentment and melancholy. She talks straight about her desperate desire to be pregnant again. So often, we who believe that “children are a blessing” forget that they are also a gift. How many of us demand gifts from our family members or friends? A gift is a gift. It’s something to be thankful …

Asking the right questions: Why not me?

By Becky Morecraft

I have wept over the losses my friends and total strangers have suffered this past week, some of them gone from this earth forever. One thought came to mind continuously: why them and not me? Why all those beautiful trees swept away and not mine? Why those quaint little towns and homes, churches and businesses worked for sometimes for years and not ours? Why those …
