For the past few years, I've been encouraging people to seek out different sources of news and ditch the mainstream media and Big Tech. I've experimented with a few different ways of trying to help people do this because I believed it was critical. If it was true a few years ago, now it can be a matter of life or death. If you think this …

This was a long week for everyone for various reasons. It was a long week at the end of a long month in the midst of a long year. Giving up, throwing up our hands, or giving into depression isn't an option. As women, we set the tone in the home more than anyone. I'm writing this today to encourage each one of us to buck up for the sake of our …

These are dark and difficult days in the world. We're living through historic events, some of which I believe are not what they seem. But whatever is unfolding, these are times that deeply trouble and unnerve men, women, and children. These are confusing times that don't make sense, at least on the surface. The only people who have the truthful …

This week I have watched or listened to most of the first two days of the Cyber Symposium. I have been sharing bits and pieces in my forum, but these videos are important enough to merit an entire post. (Go to my post for links to watch it live: How to Watch Mike Lindell's Cyber Symposium.) Below I have selected the presentations I think are …

Every day last week I opened up the browser tab to write my weekly newsletter to you all. Then I sat and stared at it. I wanted to write, but all I could come up with was a torrent of angry words. Over the years of blogging I've learned that I don't want to write when I'm angry and so every day I closed up the tab and didn't write anything. The …

I recently watched a lovely video by a young woman. She was explaining how she lives, the location, and why she made the somewhat less conventional choices she did. Her reasoning was sound and she brought up some profound insights related to her choice. (This was a secular video, not Christian.) What made me sad is that she apparently felt …

Words matter as shown by the two lists below. For Christians, our thoughts and conversation should reflect the truth God gives us in His written word. Fill your mind (and your child’s mind) with the Truth and language of God's Word. Use the words God deliberately gave to us to understand Him and our world. Those who control the language control …

In Matthew 10:16, Jesus said this to his disciples: Behold, I am sending you out like sheep among wolves; therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves. (BSB) We're called to be as shrewd as serpents and as gentle as doves. Most Christian women seem to focus in on the dove part because it is easier to understand. Everyone can see how …

David and I spent a number of years studying in-depth the issue of women in the church. If you've been around here for some time, you know I had another (now closed) website where I shared my research. There are a few posts on this site related to it including Why I'm Not a Christian Feminist (and What I Am). It was a big part of my life for a …

This post was originally written in October of 2018. I've done some light editing before republishing it, but have not changed it in any substantive ways. It's rather chilling to read it now, two and a half years later, given where we are in this country regarding men and women as well as the blatant attack on white people specifically. Could you …

On November 14, 2019, I published a post that was originally titled "I Don't Know What To Say." I eventually changed it to "How Soulless Bureaucrats Make Owning an Online Business a Nightmare." I recently shared it in a group in reference to what we've observed with online businesses being deplatformed and demonetized at an ever-increasing and …
