    News reports say airlines are cancelling flights and planes being grounded because of the rising cost and availability of jet fuel. This appears to be Covid #2 controls and restrictions being enforced. All the economic hardships are also being...

    I'm a Reformed Baptist, and not generally Torah observant, but I still tend to think it generally applies. I lean toward taking OT Law more seriously than most modern Christians. Patriarchy seems to be a universal principle in the Bible.

    I don't believe father has veto authority over her marriage because marriage itself is established by sex and therefore isn't oath or promise, so there is nothing to "undo". For rest it makes sense.

    Thank you, Julie, it's still hard for me to open up enough to share, when I do I find that it helps me further process these changes when looking at them in black and white, feels real, my new reality, my prayers have been answered, my heart as...
