Dear ****** family,
I respect your family and your lifestyle. I support your family for choosing life. In fact, I love that aspect about your family. I love that fact that you encourage daughters to love their husbands and things of the patriarchy nature.
The one thing I am concerned with, is the use of a particular famous "blog writer" in your news feed. This particular blog writer seems to have mild to severe hatred of women who suffer. Particularly, she seems to "laugh" at a woman who is in a situation where racism could be as bad as genocide issues that brew. Like issues that happened to Queen Esther.
As a person who knows and loves Jewish people, I cannot say that Lori Alexandar is a good example for conservative Christian views. For one thing she is "severely" opposed to Messianic beliefs.
These views are not common among "baptist" beliefs in that holidays and celebrations are a little different, but they DO encompass the entire bible and consider it into account for their beliefs. The first five books of the bible are NATURALLY messianic and do not need man-made intervention or religious dogma.
I have personally spoken with the blog writer -Lori Alexandar- and it is discovered that she continues to belief in her own "self gratification" and will not humble herself of this issue.
In essence, I explain why it is WRONG to hold "anti-messianic" beliefs as a Christian and also to hold anti-Semetic views are wrong as a conservative biblical believer because the entire book of ESTHER lays out this truth. YES, women DO suffer in marriages. I have heard of Jewish woman who married an ARAB who was not Christian and her self and her children were threatened do to the difference in culture. The marriage simply could not possibly work do to this issue!

Some marriages that have "issues" like infidelity, DO heal and are STRONGER than marriages that never had those issues, and some issues are severe and dangerous for the woman and children.
I wish your family many many blessings!
********** another comment.....
I read some of the blog posts from popular blogger "Lori Alexandar" at -The Transformed Wife- and I had to quit. It wasn't because I dislike her patriarchy tone. That was NOT the reason. I believe if a marriage is working and the woman absolutely enjoys her MAN, she can gracefully work with that man and so forth, she should stay with that man. The reason I had to quit, is because she is anti-messianic! Yes! She is OPPOSED to God's laws! She is opposed to the first five books of the bible! In essence she is ANTI-SEMETIC. There have been Jewish people (women) forced into marriages with men who are terrorist-minded. If God refuses to allow divorce, then he would have to agree to see a JEWISH woman murdered at the hand of wicked men! THIS type of thing is NOT SCRIPTURE!
If she actually considered the first five books of the bible in her "teachings" she would be "alarmed" with woman who are raped (Dinah-Genesis), women who are forced under slavery (Exodus-Women didn't rely on other women midwives), women forced out of the home (Abe story and the women he was with-Genesis), Women of a different nationality (Moses wife -Zipporah), Women who shared a husband (Jacob's wives and concubines). Though none of these women were "divorced" per say, all of these women went through some trials and suffering of some sort. One was even sent away. Was it the woman's fault for these issues? No it was the sin of MAN that was the problem.
Extreme patriarchy movements do not interpret the bible correctly and constantly find fault with what the bible actually says. Moses did allow divorce and it was because of the hardness of heart. God himself does not hate divorced people. He can still use those people (if the unbelieving depart, let them depart). God hates "divorce" itself, meaning the constant strain and battle about who is right and who is wrong about this and that. He especially hates seeing life in danger. He had to send us his son to die on the cross because of these types of things.
