I had the awesome privilege of being able to share the word at our church this past Sunday. My message was a result of spending most of this year asking God to teach me about submission. What I discovered has totally blown me away and I hope what I shared impacted people as much as it impacted me! In a nutshell, I highlighted the different sorts of submission from the Bible and tried my best to explain what exactly submission is. This message also forms a part of a chapter on submission in my book, Esther or Delilah, which is coming out next year. In the meantime, have a listen to the message here.
I've considered deleting this blog many times but can't seem to let it go for some reason.

Submission - a word a lot of us women don't like I think! I know I don't! Has been very helpful for me to fully understand the concept of submission without immediately associating it with being a 'pushover'!
