Letters from "Lurkers" Part 2
"...I found your site through the Ladies Against Feminism website. I actually was not a Christian until about 2 months ago. I found LAF while searching for campfire and
cast iron cooking ideas and through that found many young Christian ladies websites. I found a message board and began reading and noticed a hole or void I felt in myself and decided to try praying for the first time in over 10 years. After a while of praying and reading the Bible for the first time ever I realized I completely believed everything I was reading. I felt more fulfilled than I ever had. I have a long way to go, but I appreciate your site for the encouragment I find..." -Nicole
"My name is Bethany and I have been frequenting your blog for the past few months (I think I stumbled upon it from a link from ylcf.org)... Since I've been reading your blog, I feel like I kind of know you, so it's probably only fair that I tell you a little about myself too. I'm 20, the oldest of 4 kids and a home school graduate from Oregon. I'm a senior at Whitworth College in Spokane, WA and will receive my B.A. in journalism this spring. Throughout my life, I have been exposed to many of the highly-conservative Christian beliefs, but my own family does not necessarily hold all of them. I am intrigued by your blog (although I often disagree with you) and I think it helps me to better understand the beliefs of some of my more conservative friends. However, in spite of our different (although not entirely opposite!) views on the roles of women, family, etc., your blog still encourages me to seek Christ. Isn't that cool? Christ unifies us so that in spite of our differences, we can still encourage and support each other!" –Bethany
“I have been reading your blog for about a month now and I have to say that I think you are a very inspirational young woman! I am 34, I live in the UK, my husband has not yet accepted Jesus (although - thank you, Lord! - he has moved so much closer over the past six months) and I have two children. I am a freelance translator and work from home in the evenings when the children are in bed. It can be tiring (as you well know!) and it takes its toll on my time with my husband, but it means I can be a full-time Mummy, which makes it all worthwhile (after all, I'll be able to sleep when the children have grown up, right??!!).
"I pray hardest and worry most about being solely responsible for making sure that my children grow up knowing Jesus. However, God is as faithful as ever and has not only provided a wonderful church family, but He is also working on my husband's heart and, since September, there have been four of us at church every Sunday rather than three at church and one on the tennis court!" –K
