I have a daughter named Mariah who is in a minor crisis. Please pray that God’s will comes out of this. Those of you who have been at retreats with us have probably prayed for her before. This is serious but no life threatening. Pray that her rebellion be quelled and her mind quieted.

The number one indicator that any technology will succeed is whether or not the porn industry can use it. We all knew it was coming and here it is. AI isn’t going anywhere…. https://www.breitbart.com/economy/2024/01/15/sex-starved-openais-gpt-store-is-overflowing-with-ai-girlfriend-bots/

Alright, yes. Yes. I know you can think of a use for concubines without my help. This isn't that. It's also not my usual diatribe against the whole concept of concubines, and in fact I have had a modicum of evolution on that front, although not very much. What I'd like to get some feedback on...

There are a number of Matthew 19:9 threads and I almost resurrected one of those for this discussion but it’s a new enough issue that I figured it deserved its own thread. I am involved in an ongoing discussion loosely centered around this verse with a skeptic. He has pointed out to me that we...

Many of you may have realized this already but it just bit me like a thunderbolt. Matthew 19:9 is implicitly allowing polygyny. Here’s a response I just sent to a question that came up in a private conversation. Give me your feedback please. Dear Sir, Thank you for your message to us...

I am part of a Facebook group that takes panels of Archie comics out of context, usually to serve some purient, juvenile tomfoolery. I find the behavior immature, totally uncouth and absolutely hysterical. It occurred to me though that many of the panels brush up against poly quite...

This may have been posted before, I can’t remember. This Ronan is not one of us but she has some similar ideas.

The traditional pleasantry is “may your fast be easy” but that seems to be missing the point. If you’re keeping the day tomorrow may your flesh and spirit be sorely afflicted!

We’ve done it again. We’ve fractured back in to our theological camps and are hurting the ministry and it’s relatively narrow focus. This is not a Torah/non-Torah fight club. Yes, Torah types get a lot right but we don’t get everything right. On top of that I have NEVER seen anyone debated into...

I’m very excited to be taking to our own @ABlessedMan on a livestream about the Hero’s journey from Nice Guy to Hard Man via monstrosity.

I apologize for starting yet one more new thread around the topic of one flesh, however previous threads have taken a verse-by-verse approach and I want to take a more holistic approach this time by looking at all the verses that contain the phrase one flesh at once. Some of what I'm going to...

This makes absolutely zero sense to me. https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/02/22/63-of-young-american-men-are-single-most-young-women-are-in-relationships/

It occurred to me recently that there is a mandated document related to marriage, the divorce papers. If a man is divorcing his wife the. The scriptures require him to give her a document declaring so. It seems then that if something surrounding marriage requires a document then scripture is...

Alright. Strap in. I’ve been planning this thread for years. I know it’s an emotional topic with heavy implications for many people’s most important relationship. But I don’t care. This topic is too important for us to fall back on emotion. This is Biblical Families and we can’t offer an...

There has been a development in the ongoing Covenant Wars. For years now there has been an ongoing debate about what is the minimum conditions necessary to form a “marriage”. The consensus has always been that a covenant of some kind was required. A small but dedicated band of thrill seekers...

I was talking to @NickF recently about related issues and I realized that the covenant supporters have had to spend so much time defending the premise of their belief that they have had no space to develop it. I’d like to change that. This thread is marked as a SUPPORT thread. It is not a place...

So I very immaturely started back up the one flesh debate in another thread. But that made me think, what do we actually know about This Thing We Call Marriage (TTWCM. As, in what is clearly and undeniably laid out in the Bible? This is a vital body of knowledge to compile. TTWCM was the second...

Why are the secularists better at this than we are? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-11623079/I-talked-partner-joining-throuple-three-years.html?ito=social-facebook&fbclid=IwAR3MCFz3ciXEeD7Ep9iqg8FpY1-DXgtBBKUFXgxG2mALlUB_XRkMwysx7ZM

It’s startling how many belies this man shares with us and how thoroughly opposite his conclusions are. Most notable to me though is his conclusion that an increasing reliance on polygamy will not filer down to benefit any men other than the top 10 percent. Interesting video if you can spare...
