Ask the average Christian single lady, “What type of man do you desire?” and she will most probably reply, “A Boaz” or “I am praying for my Boaz.”

You might need an Othniel…

CALEB AND ACHSAH 1 (The Father Series)
It’s interesting how the Bible hides precious gems in the middle of seemingly mundane verses. Remember how the powerful story of Jabez was sandwiched between ‘boring’ genealogy?
Exactly.
The beautiful story of Caleb and his daughter, Achsah, is another treasure hidden between division of land…
‘…BECAUSE HE MARRIED THE DAUGHTER OF AHAB…’ (Ladies Only)
Sisters, you are powerful.
And I am not saying it in that bra-burning, fist-clenched, arm-raised, wild-haired, hardened-feminist kind of way.

A TALE OF TWO FAMILIES
The Ark had been…captured?
The ARK ‘OF THE LORD’ had been captured?!
No one could believe it.
The heart of everyone who heard it turned to stone.

HOW TO KNOW A GOOD MAN(1) (Ladies Only Series)
I love the Bible for two reasons:
(1) It Is Very Relevant
More and more people are realizing that – from money to marriage to business to sex to raising children to the workplace – the Bible really gives solid advice that is very relevant in our present world.
(2) It Is Very Real
Humans have a tendency to idolize or demonize people – painting those they love as complete saints or angels, and blackening those they dislike as total devils.
THE MAKING OF EVE(2) (Ladies Only Series)
(continued from last post)
Now, the rib was straightened and stretched, but it was too thin. Too narrow – compared to the man. So, what did God do next?
(3) He EXPANDED her…
