…the battle for mankind’s future must be waged and won in the public school classroom by teachers who correctly perceive their role as the proselytizers of a new faith: a religion of humanity…utilizing a classroom instead of a pulpit to convey humanist values in whatever subject they teach, regardless of the educational level—preschool, day care […]
By Contributing Writer, Carmon Friedrich It took us 30 years, but after too many meals with sore jaws from chewing tough meat, we finally figured out how to grill a delicious steak. My husband, the engineer and King of the Grill (he’s an expert at flashlight barbecue on dark and stormy nights), decided to do […]
Image from www.ForumAncientCoins.com By Contributing Writer, Leah Smith In my new book Diapers, Dishes and Dominion, I lay out some practical steps to changing the world as we are called to in the Great Commission. It all begins with the battlefield of our mind. Someone has already won–the question is–who. […]
By Contributing Writer, Kelly Crawford What mammoth living we would do if we truly remembered, in the moments of the day, that nothing belongs to us, but is on loan? Our children, our husbands, our gifts, our time–everything. As I read the story of the “talents” (Matthew 25) to my children yesterday, we talked about […]
By Contributing Writer, Kimberly@Raising Olives Four small children romp around me as I will my pregnant self to do the next thing. Two diaper changes. Four little ones dressed for the day. Breakfast for six. Wipe four small faces and eight small hands. Wash dishes. Stop to nurse the baby and change two more diapers. […]
By Contributing Writer, Bria Crawford The King of the universe came to conquer the world. His method? Washing feet. For you were called to freedom, brothers (and sisters). Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. Galatians 5:13 We young women are in a time […]
By Natalie, Editress of Visionary Womanhood A Fruitful Tree A few years ago I read an article in the Above Rubies magazine that graphically illustrated the potential of a family in the history of the world simply by multiplying. This picture is the family tree of Daniel Steiner, represented by the trunk (1746-1811). It is […]
By monthly contributor, Ann Dunagan of Harvest Ministry As a Christian woman, you have a unique sphere of influence and you are called to SHINE BRIGHTLY for our Lord Jesus in an totally “upside-down” world! “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do […]

Facebook Hissy Fits (and How to Avoid Them)
I love and hate Facebook. I love to use it for my business and this blog, and I love the handful of groups I participate in. But otherwise, I think it’s the pits. Just think about election season, for example. The season for “friends” and “followers” to put down the masks and start shooting. But […]
You’ve seen it. The arched back. The clenched fists. The scrunched up face. The flailing feet. The hideous shrieks of indignation. And all you wanted to do was put their shoes on so they could do what they wanted to do: go outside and play. They thought you wanted to torture them, because, you know, […]
Choosing Which Hills to Die On
By Contributing Writer, Molly Evert This week’s posts have touched on some hot button issues including higher education, vocation, and living “off the grid.” Unfortunately, there are no debate-ending proof texts on any of these issues that clearly tell us which choices are “the biblical ones.” In her post about college yesterday Natalie went after […]

By Natalie, Editress of Visionary Womanhood Potty Training: A Necessary Evil I’ve been potty training for 16 years now (well, not me—but, you know—my kids) and have succeeded, during that time, in potty training four girls and three boys so far. I won’t tell you how much poop and pee I’ve cleaned up from walls, […]
Help! Pregnancy is Making My Body Fall Apart!
By Natalie, Editress of Visionary Womanhood I received the following e-mail recently: My husband and I are in the long slow process of changing our thinking about family size. We are currently expecting our fifth little treasure, and we are so grateful, and excited. And a little scared sometimes, too, haha. :) Our oldest is […]
Demystifying the Institute for Excellence in Writing
By Natalie Klejwa, Editress of Visionary Womanhood Institute for Excellence in Writing (IEW) Home educating mothers tend to be overwhelmed by two subjects in particular. Science and writing. OK. Upper level math too. Since I’m not much of a left-brained gal, I won’t be writing any posts about dead animal dissections or the wonders of […]
Medical vs. Natural Childbirth: A Personal Story
By Natalie Klejwa, Editress of Visionary Womanhood Twenty years ago I was pregnant with our first baby and determined to have a mid-wife and experience pregnancy and birth in the most “natural” way possible. Nineteen weeks into the pregnancy I began to spot a little. Since I could feel the baby moving and had no […]
Eating the Placenta: A Christian Worldview Perspective
By Natalie Klejwa, Editress of Visionary Womanhood Placentophagy, the practice of eating the placenta after giving birth, is a subject of some interest among Wemmicks these days. After googling it, I only found one other “voice” out there raising the question of whether or not it is a morally viable option for those who claim […]
