Loving and Leading Your Strong Woman

0

Fire can cook you a nice steak, or it can burn your house to the ground. The difference lies in how well you harness its power.

It’s the same with a strong-will. There is a lot of good that comes from having what LeRoy and Kimberly Wagner describe as a “fierce” personality. But a strong-will gone wild can wreak havoc in a person’s life.

Fierce doesn’t have to mean obnoxious, loud, or rude. A fierce woman can be strong and beautiful.

The Sexual Assault Scandals are a Consequence of the Sexual Revolution

52

Time Magazine unveiled its “Person of the Year” today, and its choice is at once unconventional but not at all surprising.

In a tradition dating back to 1927, the publication has historically selected a person who makes significant news during the past year. As a result, past winners have run the gamut. Recipients have included Adolph Hitler (1938), the Ayatollah Khomeini (1979), the American Soldier (2003) and the Ebola Fighters (2014). President Donald Trump won last year, an acknowledgment of his surprising electoral victory.

Jim Daly Statement on Masterpiece CakeShop Hearing

7

The eyes of the nation were on the Masterpiece Cakeshop case today at the Supreme Court, and for good reason.

The argument wasn’t just about Jack Phillips and his refusal to bake a cake for a same-sex wedding. Today’s hearing was about our freedom to practice our faith without interference from the government. And make no mistake – the outcome of today’s proceedings will impact every American – those with religious faith and even those with no faith at all.

How Hobby Lobby Founder David Green went from $600 in Debt to $4.5 Billion in Profit

3

David Green learned how to give to others long before he founded Hobby Lobby, the well-known chain of retail arts and crafts stores across the United States. His parents never had much money, but they were two of the most generous people David has ever known.

David still remembers his dad writing someone a check for $100 even though the most he’d ever made in a week was $138. And his mom once gave a dress out of her own closet to a woman in need.

Father’s Day Ad Gives Heartfelt Twist on Career Day (video)

0

Elementary school kids give their dads a sweet surprise in a Father’s Day commercial by Kleenex, “My Dad My Hero.”

Police officers, a fire fighter, a banker, a rocket scientist – all of the fathers come in prepared to tell the young students about their jobs.

However, during their presentations, the kids’ teacher steps in and says, “We actually brought you in for another reason.”

And that other reason is sure to bring a smile to your face:

What a great reminder that being a dad is, in the words of one of the boys, the “best job ever.”

So to all of you dads out there – I hope you have a happy Father’s Day this Sunday.

Jean, the boys and I are having a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday together. I hope your family is too.

The race to Christmas has begun.

 With every retailer fighting over your hard-earned dollar for the next four weeks, do you worry it’ll take until next Christmas to get this Christmas paid off?

 Americans spent nearly $580 billion last year for Christmas.
