Are you edifying your husband?

Many of my readers know I have a different stance of submission and/or obedience to one's husband than most of the western world. I believe strongly in upholding the Biblical headship. I didn't always have such a stance, but back in 2001 God opened my eyes on this matter. In I Corinthians 11:1-16 it says the headship order is God, Christ, Husband, Wife.

Free Christian Scripture Images for Facebook or Sharing

Kind of a different post for me. But I have been playing with making some images for facebook. They are Christian scripture cover images and just general images to share to spread the word. They are made using photos of mine (and a couple my mother took too). Right click to 'save as' and download. Share as you are led. If folks like them, I may make more as time allows.
