What Your Dream Guy Wants in a Girl

What Your Dream Guy Wants in a Girl

I recently did an interview on the topic of dating, marriage and courtship. I was giving my thoughts on romance, boundaries, guys and how I want my future relationship to work out.

One of the questions the lady interviewing me asked was “what qualities are you looking for in guy?” 

Talk about a super basic question that I should easily know the answer to. Wrong! I was totally caught off guard..

Surviving a Heartbreak

Surviving a Heartbreak

Heartbreak hurts terribly. I never realized just how much though until it happened to me for the first time just a little over a month ago. Before that I had always just thought that it was a figure of speech. I didn’t know that it really does make your heart hurt physically and emotionally with grieving. And that is why I am writing this post because I want to be able to share my story with..

Virtue and Chivalry in the 21st Century

The other day I was on Facebook and an ad for fashion came up that had the tagline describing their clothes as: “Noble, Elegant, Sexy, and Pure.” I thought, “Huh, that doesn’t sound right.” I mean, how did the word “Sexy” sneak its way in between the three other words?

In our generation, most people (mostly young people aged 13-30) just don’t even know the meaning of words like nobility,..

Last night was the launch of Taylor Swift’s new and “improved” album, 1989. Girls everywhere are raving about the new pop icon’s greatest success and her amazing new style of music. I can’t help but notice that Taylor got her popularity by singing about broken relationships and whimsical love story songs. Don’t get me wrong.

Surviving the “Relationship Status”

Surviving the “Relationship Status”

Lori tossed her books onto her nightstand and then threw herself on her bed. She began crying and sobbing into her pillow. God had finally blessed her with an amazing man in her life and things were going great between them. She just couldn’t understand why she felt so scared and so upset. Lori had thought that once she began a relationship with someone that it would be fun and that it would..

How to Handle Your Desire for a Boyfriend

How to Handle Your Desire for a Boyfriend

{Guest Post by Bethany Baird}

Annie was twenty-two going on twenty-three, boyfriend-less and struggling to trust in God. She lived in a small town, worked at a small business and went to a small church. Let’s just say the male prospects in town were small as well.

The longing in Annie’s heart to finally meet and marry the man of her dreams was becoming overbearing. How could she possibly remain..

True Love Waits…

True Love Waits…

As I sat down to write this article after praying I glanced down at my fingers resting on the keys of my little red laptop. My eyes glanced at the tiny silver ring that wrapped around my ring finger. I have had this ring since I was 13. It’s a purity ring. Inscribed on the silver are three simple and life changing words. “True Love Waits”. The entire time I wore this ring up until 4 days ago I..

College, Guys, and the Homeschooled Girl

School is starting and that means college will be commencing soon too. All of your friends are going off to college and you feel left out, shied into a corner and stuffed into a box with the rest of your homeschooled friends.

Rocks At My Window

There’s a song I listen to every now and then by Bridget Mendler called “Rocks at My Window.” The chorus goes like this:

“We can run away for the weekend

Wish you’d go throwing rocks at my window.”
