“The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does; and likewise also the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does.” 1 Corinthians 1:4
Think of the weight of this verse before you rush into a relationship. Do you want an irresponsible, untrustworthy, immature, selfish person to have authority over your body, or a respectful,...

Life is hard to navigate especially when it comes to relationships. Whether it’d be with parents, friends, family, co-workers, especially with a significant other.
Since I’ve been getting alot of these questions about relationship, let’s talk about this briefly for a bit.

It’s almost eerie how often I find myself thinking “Jesus—He’s the answer to your problem, friend” when people tell me things; it really puts things into perspective.
Today my cousin was talking about how unhappy and dissatisfied she is here in the States. She used to live here but then moved to Lebanon, where she hated it, and thought that if she could only get back to America...

Basically seeing this unfolding in my Tumblr dashboard right now.
I guess, people are people; and although the Bible is inerrant and infallible, people’s interpretation of the Bible is not error-free.
Maybe before answering a question concerning sin and/or faith, make sure that the answer you…
Dear all Christian Tumblr folks,

cortneyabraham:
I realize that Tumblr is a place where we all come to share our feelings, emotions, secrets, desires, and humorous pictures of cats. I understand that almost all of our followers are strangers, which makes it much easier to share parts of ourselves that would normally go unshared. But we must also remember that while our followers are just tiny little pictures,...
the truth will set you free
My eyes brim with life and everything seems clearer, crisper, brighter. My chest is full of joy and my breaths come gentle and steady, and my body is full of warmth despite the snow falling outside.
Nothing special happened today. I didn’t win the lottery, I didn’t meet my soulmate, my family didn’t accept Christ, I didn’t get a surprise visit. Actually, I slept in later...
ecstatic that it's finally snowing!!

corycopeland:
It’s no secret that I’ve had my (and your) fair share of relationships. I’ve been a husband, a boyfriend, a lover, and a plaything (not all at once, mind you…). I’ve fought for relationships that didn’t want to be saved, and I’ve given up on couplings that maybe just needed more effort. I’ve…

is it really Law vs. Grace?
I’ve been struggling with understanding grace, so I’ve been reading and praying about it. My friend sent me the book “The Grace of God” by Andy Stanley. And God showed m that there should be no argument over Law vs. Grace.
There is no “versus,” as long as you read Genesis and Exodus.
Here is the basic outline:
God called Abraham, established a friendship, and...

Cannot wait for some hillsong to be sung through the church once again!

It’s the most I’ve eaten so far haha.
I honestly don’t understand how people can choose not to eat. It’s miserable. I’m lightheaded, grumpy, tired, and weak all the time. And I am totally craving a burger and fries haha. It’s just not worth the weight loss, to me at least.

truth-has-a-liberal-bias:
Lesliane Bouchard loved being a junior high school teacher. But after a car crash fractured her spine, she had to leave her job. Now, she might lose her home as well — First Mortgage Corporation wants to foreclose.
The worst part is that Lesliane has been approved for something called the Hardest Hit States Fund — a federal government program that would pay down enough...
