I have heard men say it is easier to work when they know the mother is there livimg out the family's goals and values.

Soon an older lady came in to meet them. I wasn't trying to overhear, but they were talking loud enough so I couldn't help but overhear. They were interviewing her for a nanny position. The wife was a physician, and the Pollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09403233175071026416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-88205153233186268872017-03-08T07:56:23.634-08:002017-03-08T07:56:23.634-08:00Such amazing wisdom here!

Ladies day classes are sometimes designed to get women to lose confidence and get out of the home.Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15530969871397361970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-53119757530893373662017-03-03T18:07:03.236-08:002017-03-03T18:07:03.236-08:00Lydia wrote.......The other thing that is a proble... Lydia wrote.......The other thing that is a problem I would like to write about is the Ladies Day speakers the churches often invite. So many young women will go to these, hoping for encouragement in their home life (marriage, chikdren, home) and the speaker is a woman who has failed at home with her own family and is a career speaker. She never speaks about Titus 2 or marriage or anything.

One thing that happens is a man's ministry does not include his family. He spends too much time away from home and developers a bonding with a lot of other people and his family really notices. He forgets that the family was created by God before any "ministry".

Many don't seem to understand the sweet office and ministry of a homemaker is truly a full time job. <br /><br />It makes me sad that wives are under such pressure but is it any wonder coupled with today's society... Oh, the beguiling deception that is out there. <br /><br />Blessings to you for taking the time to Ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09093408888499365118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-71821732176299118882017-03-02T12:08:46.521-08:002017-03-02T12:08:46.521-08:00This is excellent, Lydia.

Today the local church cannot do it, so the ministers live on their own support they raise or on a pension or investment or a side job. Whatever way they support themselves, they should not push their wives to get jobs to Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15530969871397361970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-64480010135857215232017-03-01T10:08:50.942-08:002017-03-01T10:08:50.942-08:00Here in NZ most preachers are paid from the Church...Here in NZ most preachers are paid from the Church they are accepted in to. And they can make big money by the time the cost of the house they live in/ hospitality/fuel allowance/electricity/telephone is added on top of the base rate. I have seen lots of churches in the last 5 years not replace their preachers as they can no longer afford to pay them what is expected and in most cases the membersAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
