“Anne, does Deuteronomy 22:5 mean that women should not wear pants? I mentioned this to a few friends, and they say that no, it just means we shouldn’t look like a man. My pastor’s wife is a very, very sweet woman that I look up to, and she says the [...]
The next question in my Juggling Life’s Responsibilities study guide is regarding these controversial verses from 1 Timothy 2.
“Do you think it’s fair to say women are more vulnerable than men to being deceived?”
My first reaction is that no, it doesn’t feel one bit fair. I don’t feel deceived! Not any more than anyone else, anyway! In fact, I jotted a note on my study page that “It feels like a woman sometimes sees things first in God’s Word. Then later, God opens her husband’s eyes to the same truth.”

“Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge” (Hebrews 13:4, KJV). It seems so gloomy to think about a day coming when I will stand before God to be judged. Thoughts like these don’t pass through my mind on a normal day, [...]
originally written by Anne on August 22, 2008 Today’s picture is of my husband’s very favorite way to make coffee – in a French press. He promises that coffee just tastes better when he uses freshly ground coffee, heats the water to exactly 200 degrees Fahrenheit, and allows it to [...]
Mrs. JoAnne Neiner is a dear pastor’s wife in Pittsfield, Massechusetts, and she spoke at a ladies’ retreat last spring. “School’s In Session: Gossip 101” was one of her topics.
