What is an Accountable Woman? A Look at Proverbs 31

Last updated on: October 9, 2022 at 10:13 pm By Danielle Kingstrom

A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies. Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life. She selects fine wool and flax and works with eager hands. She is like merchant ships, bringing her food from afar. She gets up while it is still night; she provides food for her family and portions for her servants. She... Read more

The Absence of Touch: Rejection of Physical Affection Hardens the Hearts of Men

Last updated on: October 6, 2022 at 11:29 pm By Danielle Kingstrom

I recently stitched a TikTok video and shared some commentary on some sad but realistic pervading thoughts that swarm the minds of American women in relationships. I am overwhelmed at how much feedback I have received, but the overwhelm is filled with sadness, not joy. Don’t get me wrong, I am so encouraged by how much resonance my commentary has had with the married men community. My goal has always been to share encouraging and optimistic advice with other couples... Read more

Are Men Failing Society?

Last updated on: October 4, 2022 at 3:25 pm By Danielle Kingstrom

There’s a lot of talk about how men are failing women in society. And of course, this idea is being voiced mostly by women. After the reversal of Roe v Wade, many women took to microphones and blogs to proclaim that men had failed to protect a woman’s most basic right. Society has declared that men are not upholding their roles to protect or provide for women. This is a general attitude fogging up the atmosphere about men that I... Read more

The Greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven: Confidence in Curiosity

Last updated on: October 3, 2022 at 4:12 pm By Danielle Kingstrom

…The disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who, then, is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” He called a little child to him and placed the child among them. And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes... Read more

Lens on Life: Do You See Abundance or Poverty?

Last updated on: September 29, 2022 at 9:37 am By Danielle Kingstrom

For many of us, we are told that Scripture forecasts the certainties of the world. Particular verses demonstrate what we know to be true, such as the rich always getting rich and the poor staying poor. Or at least that’s what we are told through the interpretive, expert eyes of pastors and leaders of the church. One such verse, as explained to me, can be found in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. Matthew 13:12 reads: “Whoever has will be... Read more

Shameware Apps & the Christian Church

Last updated on: September 26, 2022 at 2:51 pm By Danielle Kingstrom

I remember several years ago when speaking with Jehovah’s Witnesses, how important it was to them that their church encouraged congregants to avoid the internet. The JW attitude is, as it was explained to me, that the internet cannot be trusted—too many temptations. In a sense, they asked members to avoid apps and sites that could lead members astray. Of course, this is easier said than done. A member could pledge or promise to avoid certain websites or apps, but... Read more

Debt Forgiveness and the Parable of the Unmerciful Servant

Last updated on: August 25, 2022 at 7:04 pm By Danielle Kingstrom

In my last piece, I addressed the topic of national founding. Was our nation built on Christian principles, and if that’s the case, does that mean Christianity influences our government? In this piece, I would like to address the principles of Christianity and how they can be seen throughout government policy. Specifically, debt forgiveness. Is it biblical? Does the principle of jubilee apply to government policy? Does debt forgiveness really mean debt transference? The Biden Administration announced that for... Read more

Is Imposter Christianity a Threat to Democracy?

Last updated on: August 25, 2022 at 6:05 pm By Danielle Kingstrom

There’s a growing trend to vilify Christianity categorically. It’s not all of Christianity that is bad, just any Christianity that is practiced by those who may have lighter colored skin, those who vote on the right side of the political spectrum, and those who hold adoration and honor for their country. Also included in this categorical Christian vilification are any self-identifying Christians who legally own guns. The circulating assumption penetrates the airwaves— that every white, American Christian wants to create... Read more

The Essence of a Woman Will Not Be Erased

Last updated on: August 16, 2022 at 12:34 pm By Danielle Kingstrom

I am 41 years. And I still feel like I am discovering what it means to be a woman. Each passing year brings about new revelation to the essence of womanhood. I am still curious about feminine nature. What does it mean to be a woman? Can it be so easily defined? For basic sense purposes, yes, we can define a woman very simplistically. And biologically. A woman is an adult human female. From an experiential view, however, like my... Read more

Threats of Erotic Extermination: Is There an Erotic Solution?

Last updated on: August 5, 2022 at 4:03 pm By Danielle Kingstrom

It is abundantly obvious to me that there is an agenda to exterminate eroticism. The agenda to exterminate eros follows the same agenda to destroy God, and belief in God. You may find it trivial or maybe even impossible to attempt to destroy God or any belief in God, but it’s an ever-present goal and on track for discombobulation. It’s a sinister thread that has been woven into the fabric of our society. And while you may believe the fabric... Read more
