Uh? Christian Dating???

If you are a Christian and you want to know if there is such a thing as “Christian dating”, proper for a Christian, the answer is sure there is. But before I say anything about the typical, honorable “Christian dating”, I have to define what “Christian” means so that the definition itself will be a ground upon which I build my case.

Christian means, a person who lives or thrives to lead a life that brings glory and honor to the name of Jesus, not out of duty and obligation, but out of love. Continue reading Uh? Christian Dating???

“You Look Pretty, Baby!”

I am not sure how many mirrors you have in your house but in my house, you can find at least one mirror in every room. Well, let me take that back. Only those rooms I spend most of my time have mirrors.

Why? I love to look at myself! I don’t think it is sinful for a woman to look at herself in the mirror to take care of herself; to keep herself neat, clean and beautiful. My husband is my number one motivator to take care of myself because he compliments me. I mean after all, I’m his bride; I’m his crown (Proverbs 12:4); I’m his glory (1 Corinthians 11:7). So I better look pretty for him. Continue reading “You Look Pretty, Baby!”

Heading Into A Mess

It is wonderful to see couples tying the knot to be one, never to be two.

As a married person and a teacher in the area of sexual purity, I can’t tell you how I rejoice whenever I see a wedding.

Yes, the Bible says that marriage protects us from being soaked in sexual immorality (1 Corinthians 7). What a joy then to see someone escaping such a “ruthless tyrant” as sexual immorality! Continue reading Heading Into A Mess

Getting Your PhD on Your Wife

????you have no idea how I enjoyed listening to Focus on the Family daily radio show.
 
You know, I love to learn about men since I am not a man. And for some reason, I find it entertaining.
 
So, I want to share with you today what I heard today, the last Monday’s Focus on the Family radio show. Now they started making a YouTube video of the show, which is good.
 
If you are a husband of one wife, let me tell you something: YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO THESE TWO AMAZING BROTHERS, Dr. Greg Smalley and Dr. Michael Smalley.
 
And if you are a wife of one man, you will enjoy listening to this.
 
By the way, these two brothers are sons of the late Dr. Gary Thomas Smalley (September 16, 1940 – March 6, 2016), the most amazing and interesting author and speaker on the topic of relationships, mainly marriage.
 
Can you imagine the joy of their father, looking at them from heaven as they carry on the legacy! I can only imagine!
 
You know what I like most about Smalley’s? They are funny! Please don’t miss the joke especially the one at the end of the first show (1 of 2, and 2 of 2).
 
I said, I guess I can say with a humble heart that my husband definitely got his PhD on me?. Find out what I mean by listening to the show. ///

 

“Fireworks?”

He was not going to church as regular as he used to. He had good fellowship with some Christian friends but he kind of caught up with busy life and became stranger to them and the things of God.
 
Then little by little, his prayer time turned from one hour to five minutes. He knows that he is a good-looking guy who attracts any woman in his vicinity. At times he blamed his looks for finding himself in bed with a number of women he didn’t even know their names. He swore to God and himself never to have sex with a woman before marriage but he didn’t seem to be able to stick it out.
