I’ve suffered pain, heartbreak, failure, discontent, discouragement — we all have and we all will.  We live in a broken, fallen world and if you believe the Bible, what is now is only going to get worse.  I acknowledge that and keep my heart and mind heaven-minded, looking forward to the day I leave this [...]

I thought of a dozen different ways I could have talked about chapter eight of Nancy Leigh DeMoss’  Lies Women Believe: And the Truth that Sets them Free., but as I was reading, one thing about me kept popping into my head.  I tried to deny talking about it, but I feel very led to [...]

I enjoyed chapter seven of Nancy Leigh DeMoss’  Lies Women Believe: And the Truth that Sets them Free. Gregg and I are raising our children to be conformed to the Word rather than to the world, and we get a lot of confused reactions to that. “You don’t watch Glee!?” “What could possibly be wrong [...]

I thought chapter 6 of Nancy Leigh DeMoss’  Lies Women Believe: And the Truth that Sets them Free, just kind of brushed on the issues about marriage and the lies that can trap and hurt women.  It seemed to just skim the surface.  I don’t know if the author was trying to stay non-controversial or if she [...]

I wanted to address another topic within chapter 5 of Nancy Leigh DeMoss’  Lies Women Believe: And the Truth that Sets them Free. There was so much meat in this chapter, that it was really impossible to keep it all to one post. As I thought about it, I decided the best thing to do is [...]

As I read this chapter 5 of Nancy Leigh DeMoss’  Lies Women Believe: And the Truth that Sets them Free, I could not help but think of the preview for the movie I Don’t Know How She Does It.  The Plugged In review said: Kate Reddy has her friends and family amazed. How can one woman [...]

Over two years ago, Gregg and I cleaned out our entertainment – books, movies, music, books, magazines – and removed anything that had gratuitous sexuality, sexual sin (homosexual, premarital, extramarital), bad language, immoral behavior and as far as what the children watched and exposed themselves to, disrespect of parents and authority.  We also cancelled our [...]

I think chapter 3, “Lies Women Believe About Themselves” is one of the most important chapters in  Lies Women Believe: And the Truth that Sets them Free by Nancy Leigh DeMoss (previously titled Walking in the Truth). I met my first husband when I was 17.  He was 20 and we started dating on his [...]
