The Lifted Lady

Posted by Keisha Mitchell On Sept - 14 - 2009

It is amazing to me how several of the most coveted positions (in the church and in the secular world) appear, from the outside view, to carry great grandeur and few tribulations. However, this is a great misconception. Many desire to carry the titles of honor, but they truly do not understand the reality of the burden that comes with these positions.

Removing The Clutter

Posted by Paulette Harper On Sept - 14 - 2009

Do you have a closet that no one is allowed to open? I wonder why not. Is it full of junk and you keep telling yourself you are going to use one day? Just like cleaning out the closet, at times we need to do a spiritual and emotional cleaning.

Don't Stop The Love

Posted by Tanya White On Sept - 14 - 2009

Have you noticed that now that Valentine’s Day is history you have made being in and demonstrating love a mystery? Your unexpected kisses have been kicked to the curve. The peace has passed away. Your loving words of encouragement and compassion have quickly crept away like a thief in the night.

God Has The Final Say

Posted by Tonya Blount June - 1 - 2009

After years of emotional, physical, and verbal abuse, I finally ended my marriage. My exodus wasn’t planned. After a vicious beating that led to my arrest (at my former husband insistence), I prayed to God and heard an audible voice that asked, “Are you ready to Leave the Wilderness?” Several days later, I packed up my children and left. I had no plan and nowhere to go. We were immediately homeless...

Every stiletto has her secrets to her own personal style. These coveted secrets cannot be gleaned from the glossy magazines at the checkout stands in the grocery store or the latest best-selling guide to style.

Managing The Stress In Our Temples

Posted by Patricia Bridewell On Sept - 14 - 2009

Have you ever had those days when you just wanted to throw your hands in the air and give up? I know the feeling because I have rough days, too. The burden of stress falls on all of us and although it can be challenging, it is something we must all face. I would like to share some faith-based information and stress management techniques that I hope will help you cope with the stress in your lives.

The OMG! Chronicles # 1: Thou Shall Not Dance?

The question: Is it fair for a Christian school to suspend a student for attending a prom?

The situation: A Christian school in Ohio has forbid a student to attend the prom of his girlfriend (who attends another school) because they don’t condone dancing, rock music, hand-holding and kissing. He has been warned that if he goes he will go to hell be suspended and will not be able to walk with his graduating class, though he will get a diploma once he takes his final exams. However, if he engages in sex or drinking alcohol he will definitely go to hell be expelled.

Church Girl Says: Wow! I didn’t know Christian schools got down like that. I guess they remember their proms and are not trying to have a repeat of those activities with their students.

While I do not agree with the school’s stance on suspension or expulsion, I do understand where they are coming from (in a way). Music – you have to be careful what you listen to. What captures your ears captures your heart. Holding hands, kissing, sex – can we give the boy the benefit of the doubt? If he attends a Christian school and has Christian parents and is a Christian, he should know what thus says the Lord about fornication. Right? Whatever the case, he’ll have to answer to God about his decisions, but apparently also the school board. I just wonder what is going through the boy's head while school officials are off probably chatting about how he is going to burn. WWJD? I bet Prom Boy is so glad school is almost over.

The Word: 1 Corinthians 10:23 (Amplified Bible)
23All things are legitimate [permissible--and we are free to do anything we please], but not all things are helpful (expedient, profitable, and wholesome). All things are legitimate, but not all things are constructive [to character] and edifying [to spiritual life].

Church Girl is always finding jaw-dropping headlines that make her say OMG! So, she decided to do what any self-proclaimed Internet junkie would, blog about it. Her life is filled with OMG moments and apparently so is everyone else she comes in contact with. Why not share in the experience? From the news to the pews, Church Girl talks about those things that make you go hmmm.
