    Husband: Be a Teacher or Divorce!

    I am sensing truth and wisdom in your words. However, I do believe in wifely submission commanded by the scriptures. Also, due to circumstances I can explain later if time allows, we do not live under the same roof and the children -- all 3 (9, 6, & 2) live with him. I live in the same zip code...

    may be getting a divorce

    I agree that he is narcissistic and verbally/emotionally abusive. However, I have always believed in the scripture verses that teach a woman submit to her husband "in all things." Plus, I'm unemployed--I can't afford a lawyer. It seems to me that the only way for me to see my children grow up is...

    may be getting a divorce

    Update: As of today, I told my husband I don't want a divorce, and he's consenting to stay married to me. I told him I want to be treated right. He told me "then you've got to follow my rules." I'm in discussion with my dad over whether or not his rules are reasonable. He has certain...

    may be getting a divorce

    Yesterday I told my husband I wanted a divorce after he told me he has been going to nude clubs. I told him that's adultery. He said he doesn't care about that anymore. He said it in front of our 5 year old son who was in the car with us at the time. Also my husband, on the same day...

    Family is Split Apart

    A praise report . . . A week ago I requested prayer that he would have the DESIRE to worship at church again. Well, today my husband announced that he's taking us to church tomorrow morning! He said: "I don't know why a heathen like me wants to go to church." (paraphrased). Thank you for...

    Are tattoos safe?

    Why should we pick and choose which verses we like and don't like? Men ought to obey the Word and grow their beards just as they ought to keep their skin unmarked. I fail to see how Romans 14 negates this. Christ must be saddened by attempts to witness through disobedience.

    Pokemon

    As a wife who deals with this sort of marital disagreement, I have little advice. I only wish my own husband saw it this way, too. But you must know this: I have watched youtube videos of people who have personally been taken to both hell and heaven. They describe some children in hell who...

    Are tattoos safe?

    I'm surprised it was not mentioned in any of the replies I read . . . Tattoos are unbiblical. We are not to make markings on our bodies. Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD. Leviticus 19:28 That should settle it.

    Verify everything. The enemy of our souls knows how to do this, too.

    Family is Split Apart

    My husband was about to take me and the children to church this Sunday for the first time in a long time. But today our youngest was sick with a cough. He decided not to take us to church after all, saying "church is overrated, James is still sick, and I have to watch basketball." I agree...
