Seven Reasons Your Christian Husband Can’t Do Better – Part 3
Reason #3 He Is in Bondage What does this mean? Just as it sounds, he has cords, chains tied around his life and he is unable to escape from his sins. They pursue him, overtake him, enslave him. He tries to understand. He explains to himself, rehearsing what he will say if confronted, all to … Continue reading Seven Reasons Your Christian Husband Can’t Do Better – Part 3
Smarter than a Worm? Right?

The Katey Papers – 2
Peter’s words to women are sublime. He erases all agony, bolsters all resolve, and squelches all argument, leaving the suffering wife speechless, astonished. If she is born again.
