 The True Woman website states that they exist to help women…

  • Discover and embrace God’s created design and mission for their lives
  • Reflect the beauty and heart of Christ to their world
  • Intentionally pass on the baton of Truth to the next generation
  • Pray earnestly for an outpouring of God’s Spirit in their families, churches, nation, and world

IMHO the movement centers around the controversial issue of women’s roles.

 I think you will be hearing a lot about this movement soon.  Women’s roles is a very hot topic in the church right now and I think we will be seeing a lot of activity on both sides of the issue in the near future.

What does it look like to be a follower of Jesus Christ?  What does that mean?

When I get overwhelmed with all the ideas and questions and demands and opinions about what it means to be a Christ follower I go back to the basics…being a good friend.

Here is a quote about friendship…I think it could very well be a quote about Jesus and that it should be a quote about those of us who follow Jesus.

 “Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person; having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but to pour them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, knowing that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then, with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away.”   George Elliot

What does being a follower of Christ mean to you?
