This Woman Has No Clue

A4P Guest: I am 34 years old and my wife is 31. We had a one-year old son and it’s been 8 months since my wife slept with me. She is sleeping in the living room. She has no interest for sex. And when I heard some of your video messages, and heard you speak about porn, I couldn’t help but say, “This woman has no clue about real life!” I mean, are you going to judge me for watching porn in my situation?

Can A Woman Teach?

A4P Guest: Hi Missy, a topic came up during our Bible study and I want to run the topic through you. It’s in regards to women in the ministry. I am a big fan of yours and your ministry. What is your understanding of Scripture when it comes to women being teachers/pastors? I notice that most of the authors and teachers you quote hold a complementarian view; they are against women being pastors/teachers of law.
 
A4P: You know, almost all the theologians I follow closely don’t believe in women being a leader, or a pastor, a teacher of the word, and a shepherd or an overseer of a church. With some reservation, I agree with most of them. Why did you ask me this question? I hope you don’t see me as a shepherd, a pastor, a teacher of the word or an overseer of a church. Do you?

I feel Stuck!

A4P Guest: I’m 28 years old and I got married a year ago. My husband is a nice person. I decided to marry him because I thought I was attracted to him but to my nightmare, I now realized that I was only attracted to his spiritual life, not to him. He used to tell me about God, the word of God and what God had done in and through him when we were dating. It was my joy to see him on stage. He is a solo singer and he also leads worship. He is loved and adored by everybody in our church. When he leads worship, Missy, the whole congregation gets lost in the worship. I was very excited when he asked me out because he was the dream man of many of my single friends and mine too. I now come to know that I am in love with the man on stage, not off the stage. I don’t know if you understand what I am saying. I still love to see him on stage, leading worship and everything but other than that, I am totally not attracted to him, especially sexually. Whenever he approaches me to kiss me and everything, I get dis – – – because there is nothing in him that draws me close to him. No chemistry! Every interaction with him feels like chores. And on the other hand, he doesn’t have that much spiritual life outside the church. He doesn’t pray that much. I thought he would help me to grow in the Lord. I am now the one to remind him to pray. I feel stuck!!!! What do I need to do? Continue reading I feel Stuck!
