Quotes from our Chat:
“Biblical womanhood…as with so many other things needs to strike a balance.”
“God created womanhood, so He gets to define what it looks like.”
“There is no cookie cutter version of what a Christian woman ought to look like.”
“Not every woman of the Bible had the same personality, the same life story, the same roles to play.”
“Hannah realized that what God had given her in Samuel, had always been the Lord’s and she gave him right back to God.”
“Corrie ten Boom teaches us to love the Lord in the face of hardship. It can be easy to follow after Christ when things are going well, but when things turn hard it can be a different story.”
“It’s super easy for us to love our people, but what do we do in the face of loving our enemies? Maybe they are not ‘enemies’ like we would have in a war, but what do we do with that person who gets under our skin just a little more than we would like them to? Are we willing to love them as well?”
