Awesome! Now watch some comedies, and realize that just being able to blog and make DVDs that have helped people has been a blessing in itself and a future reward for you.

Katherine Bushnell believed that in the last days women would be free to use their gifts and take the lead in spreading the gospel, and I believe we are now seeing this. Outside the walls of “the church”, yes, but in the world. We were always supposed to be “salt”, and I like to remind people that you don’t dip your food in salt, you shake the salt over the food. Likewise, we are to go out into the world and preach the gospel, not endlessly repeat it to the saved.

So here we all are, rejected by our own brothers and sisters, forced to go out into the world by persecution– just as God did with the first century believers who otherwise would have stayed in Jerusalem. Take heart that you are part of this exodus, following the will of God, and that women are being freed through your efforts.
