Jen Hatmaker Rejects Biblical Teaching

The politics of Jen Hatmaker: Trump, Black Lives Matter, Gay Marriage and More – The HGTV star and best-selling Christian author holds nothing back in this candid and personal interview.

LifeWay Pulls Jen Hatmaker Resources After She Affirms Apostasy

“In a recent interview, [Hatmaker] voiced significant changes in her theology of human sexuality and the meaning and definition of marriage—changes which contradict LifeWay’s doctrinal guidelines.”

America is at fork in the road. If Hillary Clinton is elected, we will be well on our way toward a socialist, globalist nation whose tax payers fund the murder of their own unborn citizens.

Join Heidi St. John as she talks about the very real struggle that the Christian community has had with what to do in the 2016 election. It comes down to justice vs witness—so I ask you—where will our Christian "witness" be if we stand aside and allow the our tax dollars to fund the brutal murder of the unborn? Do we really think God would nod tacitly at His children as they let it happen in the name of Christ?

Our moral indignation at what Trump said eleven years ago will pale in comparison to what Hillary Clinton will do if she is elected to the highest office in the land.

We need to recognize what is really at stake in this election.

What is Medi-Share?

Biblical—Ministry First

Healing was always the center of Christ’s ministry. In fact, Jesus healed in almost every town he visited. We continue his vision for the Church by helping Christians share in each other’s medical needs.

Affordable—A Perfect Fit for Every Budget

There’s a price for every budget. Medi-Share is flexible and agile when it comes to meeting your family’s price range, and our call center is standing by to answer your questions.

Penalty Free—In Compliance with the Affordable Care Act

We’re not insurance, but we’re still compliant with the Affordable Care Act. This means that you won’t get fined by the government for not having insurance if you join with the Medi-Share family.

Community—Christians helping other Christians

Through Medi-Share, our members are connecting to share each other’s healthcare burdens every day. We see a culture based on Jesus, and our community echoes that vision. Medi-Share Members are loving, giving, and prayerful warriors for Christ and for their neighbor.

From my Guest

“I grew up on the mission field, our home was filled with military men and women who were away from loved ones. It was in our home that I watched and learned the value of hospitality while sharing God’s love with those who walked through the door.

I live in the Pacific Northwest with my sweet hubby of 24 years. We have four very fun grown children…two by birth and two by marriage and are loving our first grandbaby girl and two grand-puppies!!

My heart’s desire is to help women with budget-friendly, creative ways to meet and balance the challenges of the “everyday” while nurturing and blessing their husbands, children, friends and community.”  Read more from Lisa on Simply…This. That. & The Other!

Radical Hospitality: Benedict’s Way of Love – Today’s culture is increasingly hostile and suspicious toward anyone who appears to be different–especially when tragedy strikes. Our instinct is to bolt our doors and protect the ones we love. But deep within the heart of Benedictine spirituality lies a remedy to hatred, fear, and suspicion: hospitality. At once deeply comforting and sharply challenging, true Benedictine hospitality requires that we welcome the stranger, not only into our homes, but into our hearts. With warmth and humor, drawing from the monastic tradition and sharing personal anecdotes from their own lives, Pratt and Homan encourage us to embrace not only the literal stranger, but the stranger within and the stranger in those we love.

Bread and Wine: A Love Letter to Life Around the Table with Recipes – As a follow up to her two bestselling books, Bittersweet and Cold Tangerines, author and blogger Shauna Niequist returns with the perfect read for those who love food and value the community and connection of family and friends around the table.

Bread & Wine is a collection of essays about family relationships, friendships, and the meals that bring us together. This mix of Anne Lamott and Barefoot Contessa is a funny, honest, and vulnerable spiritual memoir. Bread & Wine is a celebration of food shared, reminding readers of the joy found in a life around the table. It’s about the ways God teaches and nourishes people as they nourish the people around them. It’s about hunger, both physical and otherwise, and the connections between the two.

The Nesting Place: It Doesn’t Have to Be Perfect to Be Beautiful – Popular blogger and self-taught decorator Myquillyn Smith (The Nester) is all about embracing reality―especially when it comes to decorating a home bursting with boys, pets, and all the unpredictable messes of life.

In The Nesting Place, Myquillyn shares the secrets of decorating for real people―and it has nothing to do with creating a flawless look to wow your guests. It has everything to do with embracing the natural imperfection and chaos of daily living.

Drawing on her years of experience creating beauty in her 13 different homes, Myquillyn will show you how to think differently about the true purpose of your home and simply and creatively tailor it to reflect you and your unique style―without breaking the bank or stressing over comparisons. Full of easy tips, simple steps, and practical advice, The Nesting Place will give you the courage to take risks with your home and transform it into a place that’s inviting and warm for family and friends.

There is beauty in the lived-in and loved-on and just-about-used-up...
