English Standard Version Paul in Macedonia and Greece 20 After the uproar ceased, Paul sent for the disciples, and after encouraging them, he said farewell and departed for Macedonia. 2 When he had gone through those regions and had given them much encouragement, he came to Greece. 3 There he spent three months, and when a plot was made against him by…

The Drinks Are On Me: Everything your mother never told you about breastfeeding

Much props to Veronika Robinson. As mentioned in a previous post, I’d rather have a wife who breastfeeds too much than too little. Wanting to nurse everything that breathes is more laudable than refusing to nurse even your own infant. Not only is she okay breastfeeding her toddler, as seen above, Veronika is also cool…

Acts 2

English Standard Version The Coming of the Holy Spirit 2 When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. 2 And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. 3 And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and rested[a] on each one of them. 4 And they…

Acts 1

English Standard Version The Promise of the Holy Spirit 1 In the first book, O Theophilus, I have dealt with all that Jesus began to do and teach, 2 until the day when he was taken up, after he had given commands through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen. 3 He presented himself alive to them after his suffering by many…

ANR vis-à-vis God’s preference for organic, human use

2 You yourselves are our letter of recommendation, written on our[a] hearts, to be known and read by all. 3 And you show that you are a letter from Christ delivered by us, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.[b] — 2 Corinthians 3 Footnotes  6 I planted, Apollos…

The God who yokes himself to his Bride

Christian, you were born dead and unresponsive, until Jesus Christ decided to take the initiative and yoke himself to you, thus breathing life into your formerly useless lungs. Now, God’s cup of wrath towards you is empty. You now wear his righteousness. What’s more, Christ is still advocating for you right this moment. His bloody…

A huge mighty God who chooses the least likely, such as nursing, and the Cross

“A huge, mighty God who chooses the least likely.” — Shai Linne, Election God prefers to use the unlikeliest, even the taboo, to glorify himself, for example, using a woman nursing her husband to bring unrivaled stability to marriages. Or his Son becoming a curse to rescue sinful men from the curse of sin, which…

An imperial symbol of torture and execution has miraculously become a globally-recognized token of grace. Torture and execution is somehow now our victory symbol. The same act meant to nourish infants is now being rediscovered for what it is– a rare gift between a man and woman, with power to save marriages on the rocks.…

For God so loved the world that He GAVE

God, by nature, is a self-giver. Women, by nature, are also self-givers. Women’s bodies were created to give life, and their personalities and characters also align with this self-giving mission. Research shows over and over that if women and girls are invested in, they tend to reinvest in their communities and those near and dear.…

Multiplicity

“A lady inducing is not going to have the same supply as a lady who has recently given birth. A new mom has much more milk.” ANR is tied to fecundity. Men and women into this lifestyle are equally fond of the idea of women making a milk volume that overflows. I strongly believe ANR-loving…
