The season of Lent has passed. For many of us, we continued to worship at the churches we’ve attended for a while but for others, it meant discerning a church home.

In a previous post, A Lady made this astute observation: I think a lot of men want their wives working because we’ve destroyed the same-sex mingling spheres that allowed housewives and husbands to have plenty of social interaction that wasn’t employment-related. Some of this was creative destruction, some of it more intentional, but here we […]
