Well, it's more accurate to say that it was dictated by a woman and recorded by a man, right? I'm wondering if Proverbs 31 is the only part of the Bible that is from a woman?

On another forum that I participate in, someone asked a really interesting question that inspired a lot of fascinating lists. The question is, "Who would you like to see in heaven?" It could be people who have already died and you know are most probably in heaven or it could be people who you...

I have a question. What should a Christian wife do if her husband almost always doesn't agree with what she perceives the Lord is leading her to do? For example, I often feel that it would be a good thing to do some act of kindness for another person, such as to invite someone to dinner who I...

Just a place for us women to discuss the Bible together. So for any questions or thoughts on the readings we are doing in the Bible, whether from a Bible reading plan, devotional, sermons we have heard, etc., we can post them here and help a sister go deeper in her studies. Let's encourage each...

I'm wondering what you guys think of the t.v. show on A&E called "Dog the Bounty Hunter". Dog Duane Chapman is an actual bounty hunter based in Hawaii, and this is one of those reality t.v. shows that follows him doing his work. He is a pretty tough dude, for example using bad language when...

Groene said Americans need to pressure lawmakers to protect children from people like Joseph Edward Duncan III, who is also suspected of murdering the family of the kidnapped children. Duncan was released on $15,000 bail earlier this year after being charged with molesting a six-year-old boy...

I'm interested in hearing different Christian perspectives on the topic of witnessing or personal evangelism. I have heard so many different things about witnessing out of the mouths of various Christians in my life and also on the internet. Different things I've heard: - Witnessing is best...

I became a Christian at age 30 and didn't get in to a church until a year or 2 later. Before I was born again, I was always a loner and basically I didn't really trust or like people very much. But when I was born again, I was radically changed in one major way: I wanted to love and spend time...

I like the idea of a few people getting together online for a prayer circle. Maybe it shouldn't be called a prayer circle since the purpose isn't just to ask for prayer or pray all the time. I would like to belong to a prayer group where we can discuss prayer and intercession, where we can share...

I heard a very good old Christian song on internet radio today. It was called "Disappointment" by Phil Keaggy. Thought you might find the lyrics to be interesting too. Disappointment by Phil Keaggy Disappointment - His appointment, Change one letter, then I see That the thwarting of my...

Should a Christian always help another Christian out, even if it makes them uncomfortable or makes them feel used? I ask because I have a friend at church who always seems to call when she needs something. Sometimes she asks for help on things that I really don't think I should help her with...

I was called by God from the beginning to pray for others. I knew from the beginning, when I first repented and placed my faith in Jesus Christ, that I was called to pray for others. Special things happen when I pray intercession so that I sometimes forget to pray for myself. So lately, I try to...

I have a question, and I hope that this discussion will also minister to someone here. At my church, we had a guest speaker who is a missionary in the Ukraine. He spoke to us about how to live a Christian life of purpose by being a minister of reconciliation. The idea is that people who aren't...

Hoping that someone will read this who has knowledge of blindness and illness affecting the eyes. I have a friend at church who is blind in his left eye. Over time his left eye has become cloudy in appearance and frequently gets infected, causing him some discomfort. He has been advised recently...

This is an email that I want to send to all the Christians I know, but I hesitated to send it for fear that they would think I am trying to send them a hidden message, such as "You should care about me more." I'm still waiting to hear back from my husband if he thinks I should send it or not. So...

For anyone looking for ideas for last minute crocheted gifts, I think I made a nice gift out of scrap yarns. This is especially for those who like to drink coffee. If you go to any coffee shops these days, you get your coffee in those paper cups, and usually they put a paper sleeve around it to...

I thought I would vent a little about something that just happened to me. I was asked to participate in an Arts & Crafts Fair by my brother because his work was hosting their annual fair. It was described to me as being a real Arts & Crafts fair where artisans turn out to display and sell the...

I was excited that Bush won, partly because last night, my mom promised to go to church with me on Sunday if he won. I have been praying for my mom for a long time. I never would have expected that last night, the events surrounding the election would work in such a positive way. My mom was...

Something odd and touching just happened to me this past weekend. For the past week or two, I have been wanting to get a Christmas tree. I didn't know if I wanted to buy an artificial tree or get a fresh cut tree. I knew that I wanted to put up a tree as soon as possible because all of a sudden...
