Reformed Chicks Blabbing

(“The Mute Christian Under the Smarting Rod” or, “The Silent Soul with Sovereign Antidotes” by Thomas Brooks, 1659, London.) Consider Christian, that all your . . . trials and troubles, calamities and miseries, crosses and losses, which you meet with in this world–is all the hell that you shall ever have! Here and now you…

So, I just got back from Phoenix. I left last Friday and returned tonight. I was a nervous wreak on Friday and felt like throwing up all day but by the time the plane taxied and prepared for takeoff I was fine and my return flight was not so bad. I am happy to report…

What can you say about a religion that would find nothing wrong with encouraging a woman’s son to kill her? This goes against nature: Young children – in some cases a woman’s own son – have been used to carry out so-called “honour killings” in Turkey. The duty of repairing the family’s reputation is often…

I’ve been meaning to share this with you even though it’s a few days old; because laughter is good medicine, right? I saw this the other day at the Riddleblog: You know you are not Reformed if . . . you think the Apostles Creed is the guy who fought Rocky in Rocky I. .…

Ellen has an interesting post about Samson which she uses as an example of how God uses imperfect people deliberately to bring glory to Himself.

Carrie sent me this article and I’m still in shock over it. I can’t believe that people would do something like this and so it really makes me wonder about what’s going on: A pastor who says his congregation voted not to accept black membership has resigned. The church says it never made such a…

If you believe that we are at war with Islamic fascists, then I think it’s very clear who you should vote for in the fall. Here’s the vice president on behalf of Rep. Jeff Fortenberry of Nebraska: The Bush administration will “keep national security at the top of the agenda this election year,”? Vice President…

In case anyone was wondering what happened to me, I unexpectedly lost my Internet connection on Sunday. I’m back for a little while today but I won’t be back again until tomorrow night. When I checked my email last night I had 64 messages (this includes comments). It didn’t take me as long as it…

This past Friday, my husband was rushed to the hospital with an irregular heartbeat. The normal heart rate for an adult is 60-80 beats per minute, Mike’s was anywhere from 120-170! So I get the call around 9:30AM from him telling me they (the medical doctors where he works) are sending him to the hospital…

Hello Everyone! My family and I just returned from the great state of Maine. We went on our first ever camping trip. There were many people who shall remain nameless who would’ve bet good money that I would wimp out during this trip. I really wish that they (and I) were the gambling types, because…
