Marriage is a threefold covenantal contract: personal, spiritual, and social. It is never just about me, it is about others. If I take the other spouse or children out of the equation, marriage fails and they suffer. If I take God out, I fail and everyone suffers. If I forget it is a social contract, [...]

The words no mother wants to hear are stammered and whispered by the doctor. The word “mother” is synonymous with selflessness. Most women would immediately and easily choose to give their life to spare their child if the doctor said, “I can only save one.” Many mothers sacrifice not their lives, but a relationship with [...]

We are living in an age where men are not men. Instead they are grown up boys at best; or at worst, a hybrid asexual being despising true manhood as archaic. Society encourages such a feminization of men. Both the “grown up boy” and the “feminized male” are weak. David told Solomon, “I am going [...]
