Women in the Body of Christ

My Baptist Roots Protected Me Against Calvinism

After years of navigating Reformed theology and various church denominations, I have gained a clear perspective on the differences between those circles and my own Baptist doctrine. As I’ve spent many hundreds of hours digging into these complex teachings, one thing has become clear: my foundational Baptist roots—specifically regarding eternal security and the simple offer …

Joel Webbon on the Husband Owning His Wife, Children, and Everything Else

In case anyone thought I was exaggerating with my warnings regarding Joel Webbon, I give you this video below. (I don’t know who the woman is who made the reel. It popped up in my feed.) Stuff like this makes me think Webbon is a subversive sent to derail the idea of America being a …

The Botkin Sisters Offer Apology for \”So Much More\”

Anna Sophia Botkin and Elizabeth Botkin Thompson have recorded a YouTube video (below) and written an extensive paper offering a detailed and sincere apology for their book So Much More which was published in October 2005. It is heartbreaking to watch their deep regret for the negative fallout of this book.  There is so much …

Is It Schism or the Gift of Discernment?

I wrote this comment yesterday on this post: The Sin of Schism, Tom Buck, and Why Repentance is Necessary. I had no idea how timely it would be the next day. You\’ll see why I say that when I put up my next post this morning. The post I\’m linking to is very inside baseball …

The Loss of Mature Believers in Christian Institutions

This is a lengthy comment I left on a Substack article that is too involved to quickly summarize. If you want to check it out, you can take the link. I may get roasted over there, but I was willing to take that chance for the sake of the people who will will feel heard …

How Women Will Pay for the Lindsay Clancy Trial

As we anticipate the First Turning, I\’ve been warning that the pendulum swing back to the conservative side regarding the roles of men and women in society will overshoot. Pendulums always do. What I did not anticipate is a story like the Lindsay Clancy trial adding fuel to the fire. And not just fuel. But …

Did Paul Forbid Lydia from Teaching in Her Home Church?

A comment on a recent video made me look into something I don’t believe I’ve ever seen discussed. The comment was on the video I shared in Worship or Edification in the New Testament Church? It pertained to Lydia, the first convert to Christianity in Europe. This is the comment: The church in Lydia’s house …

Sallie Schaaf Borrink

I’m a Christian, wife, homeschool mom, battle-seasoned blogger, and happy warrior for Christ. I discuss how Christians who don’t fit dominant institutional church and cultural narratives are already living truthfully and faithfully in the body of Christ.

“Now the Bereans were more noble-minded than the Thessalonians, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if these teachings were true.” Acts 17:11

A Christian Nation

"The real object of the first amendment was not to countenance, much less to advance, Mahometanism, or Judaism, or infidelity, by prostrating Christianity; but to exclude all rivalry among christian sects, and to prevent any national ecclesiastical establishment, which should give to a hierarchy the exclusive patronage of the national government."

Joseph Story (Associate Justice of the Supreme Court), Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States (1833), § 1871.

countenance: To favor; to encourage by opinion or words; To encourage; to appear in defense (Websters Dictionary 1828)
