After I had my melt down a few months ago, Sharon called to encourage me and give me some love.

Sharon Cobb asked about Ephesians 5:22-23 over at Kat’s blog. This is much better understood when you expand the passage to include 25-32.
Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is [...]

Entertaining Evil

Pollsters have too much time on their hands

Posted in Misc, Musings, tagged on July 8, 2008 | 1 Comment »

Headline on yahoo news this morning:
Poll: Obama leads McCain among people who don’t have pets
Seriously.  Is that important to know?  Does this mean that they are going to start targeting messages to dog owners?  Free flea collars for all pets!

Wives Working

Posted in Christianity, Musings, tagged , , , , on May 28, 2008 | 3 Comments »

Not that this is something I need to be concerned about at the present time, I was listening to a series of messages from John MacArthur (Grace to You podcast).  He said in both of his sermons on wives and husbands in a Christian marriage that it is bad for a wife to work outside [...]
