    What Makes a Woman Beautiful?

    Beauty. It’s absolutely everywhere in our culture, isn’t it? We idolize beautiful women, or at least, those we consider beautiful according to superficial standards. Take a look at celebrities like  Kendall and Kylie Jenner. Women who are famous for good looks, sexuality, and materialism…but not much else. A Beautiful Lie Even Taylor Swift, a talented songwriter and singer, is losing fans because of her newfound focus on vengeance and victimization in her songs. But what ever happened to grace, values, or class? Is Hollywood and social media portraying an accurate depiction of beauty? Ladies, we’ve been robbed. We live in a culture that says it’s wrong to be feminine or…

    Friends With Benefits, Jesus, and Love

    I was in in the middle of eating lunch and thumbing through my friends’ Snap Chat stories when an article from Cosmopolitan about how to pull off having friends with benefits caught my eye. What I didn’t know is that God was going to use this article to remind me of what love really is all about. At first, my hope was that this article was only click bait sarcasm on why being friends with benefits is a terrible idea. And of course, I was wrong. So wrong in fact, that the article actually had some celebrity psychologist spewing advice on how to have casual sex with a friend and not get hurt–or fall in…

    The Single Life~Day 3 of The 30 Day Blog Challenge

I guess that’s because writing about love and relationships is a very personal and sensitive topic to approach. I’ve dated before. I had a couple of relationships in high school that ended badly, and one at the beginning of college that wasn’t what God wanted for me.

    Real Talk~What the Bible Says About Sex

    This is a guest post by the creative and fun blogger, Dainty M. I think it’s awesome how boldly she wrote on such a complicated topic. I hope you all enjoy! So this a topic most people shy away from, especially me. I’m a conservative, and I can come up with a thousand other topics to write about before this one. But this remains a core part of every young adult’s life, and God has led me to write on it. I’m no pro when it comes to stuff like this, but I believe in His guidance. So yes, young adults are said to be sexually active. Generally, youths are hot…

    Bubble Christianity

    (Photo Credit) Well, unsurprisingly another scandal has hit.This time being one that ruffles our Christian feathers before we shake it away. Josh Duggar, a star from the show 19 Kids and Counting who was already discovered to have molested his siblings as a teenager–has been caught in the big Ashley Madison hack. In case you aren’t aware, Ashley Madison is a dating website for people who are married and want to have an affair. I can’t even make this stuff up. Millions of users were caught in the hack, so it’s definitely not just Duggar who is involved. I have a strong hunch that there were several hundred–if not thousands–of…
