The Underestimated Power of SpendingTime With People (In Real Life)
Hello Everybody, We are in the midst of finishing up school, plays, recitals and ALL THE THINGS May brings our way, so this will be a short one, but I just wanted to quickly discuss the power of spending time with people, IRL, as the kids say. In Real LIfe (IRL) is an acronym that one will see quite a bit on social media. I remember a time when spending time with people was always IRL — every single time I said “I spent time” with somebody, it meant I was in the same room, talking and eating, laughing and maybe even arguing over things that matter.

The Woman and Her Seed
At the highest levels of government and industry, all the way down to the swimming pool, you will discover what seems to be an orchestrated effort to completely erase women and their influence in society.

Look at almost every ancient culture, and you will find women and children being marginalized, their rights limited and voices diminished — but Christianity changed that.
