In part 3 of an ongoing series, Today I look at the difference between God speaking audibly to people versus the Spirit’s inner work of sanctification, intuition and promptings.

Does God speak to us directly in life matters, such as who to marry or where to go to college? If so, how do we authenticate these direct revelations? If no, how can we prove this from the Bible? Join me for part 1 of a series examining direct revelation today.

Yesterday I wrote about polygamy in the Bible. God does not accept polygamy as an appropriate marital configuration. His standard is seen in Genesis 2:24, where he brought one man to one woman and made them as one flesh for life. So on what basis do the Mormons claim it's legitimate to have plural wives? Listen to find out.

A dear sister contacted me and asked me to write about polygamy. In my series, I’d only mentioned polygamy, noting that Abraham had multiple wives. So did, David, Solomon, Elkanah, and that even the institute of marriage crumbled as early as Genesis 4:19, when we read that Lamech took two wives.

As I was writing the series I briefly considered writing more about polygamy (multiple spouses supposedly married to one person) but discarded the idea since polygamy isn’t a huge concern in the US.

I was wrong.

The Bible calls married women to submit to their husbands, as they submit to the Lord. (Ephesians 5:22-25). But when your husband isn’t a believer in Christ, or is a minimal believer showing little interest in spiritual things, how does one navigate the minefields that pop up?

This week I'm looking at marriage. I wrote about what submission is and isn't, I posted a sweet testimony about persevering in marriage, and I recommended a site called Confidently Called Homemakers that has a lot of encouragements and resources for the women who work at home. Today is about marriage to a difficult man.

You can read the story in 1 Samuel 25. You can also read the exposition of Abigail's character as a discerning and humble wife here at Bible Gateway.
