I like to read Proverbs 3:28 when I speak to groups of married women about sex. “Do not say to your neighbor, ‘Come back later; I’ll give it tomorrow’–when you now have it with you.”
Fun verse, huh. So, maybe that wasn’t the intent of the original Hebrew. I don’t think God minds.
I had the BEST time tonight. I spoke to the super-cool, way-awesome MOPS group of First Baptist Church in Kettering, OH, and they blew me away. So sweet, so kind, so fun. They just really made me feel all loved and cozy. THANK YOU, girls. What a great night!!
And I can’t wait for you to start leaving comments about getting your homework done! Who’s going to be first??
I got to see Beth and Gwen–two gals I met at church camp when we were in high school. And Holly, a gal who has heard The Sex Talk before at another MOPS group and came to hear it again. Ha! I love it!
I’m so thankful that God has given me such neat opportunities to do what I love and bring Him glory at the same time. Praying He touched your hearts, ladies! And I prayed through your requests and will again. Thanks for sharing them with me.
In other news, I have more Expecting books signed and ready to send! Woohoo! If you’d like to sponsor the shipping costs for either a box of 16 ($11) or an envelope of 5 ($4), please let me know! I need 3 sponsors at $11 and 4 at $4. EDIT (4:30pm): We’re all set! THANK YOU!
If you’re new here and aren’t sure what I’m talking about, check out this post.
Some of you asked if I’m accepting donations for more books. Not yet. I need to get the difference made up (between the $5 donated and the $8.25 cost of the book) first. Does that make sense? I’m hoping in a few weeks!
Short and sweet today! Speaking of short, I’d love to know how tall you are. I’ll start. I used to think I was 5’10″, but I think I’ve shrunk to 5’9″.
How about you? How short are you?
5’7 and that is if I really stretch… but in my family that is necessary as both my sisters are 5’9 and my brother is 6’4
I used to be 5’11″, but shrunk to 5’10 1/2″ after my 2 back surgeries. and at this height I’m still the shortest one in my family!!!
I knew you were tall.
I’m 5’4. Barely.
I am 5’4 and holding!
I’m sitting here wondering when I’m going to get to hear your sex talk. I think it’s about time!
I’ve always said I was 5’6″, but a doctor recently said I’m 5’5″. I was very disappointed b/c I want to be 5’10″. I still use 5’6″ when I calculate my BMI!
Hey, how close are you to Cincinnati?
Hahaha, I’m with Shannah. I vigorously defend all of my 5’0″……..even if they’re not really there.
Was it Gwen E. that you saw?
At last check, I’m still technically 4’11 3/4″. But my driver’s license says 5′ because the only other option is 4’11″, and that 3/4″ is VERY important!
I’m 5’5.5″ I dig all the 5s. But I think I’m shrinking. And that depresses me. Because being 5’5″ is not near as romantic as throwing in the extra 5.
P.S. I’m loving getting to know you and learning all about your ministry!
5’1″. And I wear heels all.the.time. Can you guess why? Could it be that the hubs is 6’1″?
i’m 5′ 4″
and i live about 2 miles from where you were last night!!!
5′ 9″ without heels. That’s why I don’t wear them. That and the fact that I have balance issues and would kill myself if I wore heels.
Oh, good grief! I used to be 5’4″, but for some reason, and I think part of it is due to scoliosis, I am now 5″1-1/2; you should see me try to get into the neighbor’s van…….
I am 5’5″
Used to say 5’11″ but I think I’ve shrunk to 5’10″ Unless I wear heels. Which I do–often. Then it’s just TALL.
If I stand up completely straight I’m 5’4″.
5 foot 7 1/2. That 1/2 inch is really important, for some reason.
I did my homework! I’ll probably go for extra credit later today!
Mom was right! Drink your milk and you don’t shrink! 56 years old and still 5′ 3 and 3/4″. Yippee!! (I made my hubby measure me!)
5 foot 7. I hope I’m not shrinking. Yet.
I used to be 5’7″ but I have shrunk to 5’6″
