Thank you so much for writing me in ...Prayerpost,<br /><br /> Thank you so much for writing me in response to what you've read here. It's such a comfort to my heart to know that this post (and prayerfully others) has and will continue to bless you.<br /><br /> Studying this material this summer was a shocker for me as well. I didn't realize that so many women had done so much for Christ throughout the centuries. It's sad to think that this type of research is very "uncommon" in our seminaries, and that very few seminaries have this archaeological research on their shelves. I think the scarcity of such resources testifies to our unwillingness to face the truth about our presuppositions and prejudiced beliefs. It's a sad situation...<br /><br /> I pray that you would continue to read and be blessed by what you see here. Feel free to comment anytime. Continue to pray for the blog, that I would honor God with what I say and do. It's all for His glory...Deidre Richardson, B.A., M.Div.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04415891901162852180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4432829881659791534.post-39940150083838390702009-11-23T22:38:08.327-05:002009-11-23T22:38:08.327-05:00What a breathe of fresh air in an atmosphere that ...What a breathe of fresh air in an atmosphere that has become stagnant indeed! What of the women who were martyred for their faith throughout the centuries? I questioned, agonized for years, and spoke often regarding this subject to God. I knew the truth because He showed it to me, but I used to say to Him what good is it if I know the truth? I am surrounded by men who rule and do not question. Thank you for your writings here.Prayerposthttp://www.prayerpost.orgnoreply@blogger.com
