The Era of Superwomen
We rarely do this at Mode Observation, but this week we want to speak specifically to women. By wanting to be super women, we hurt our relationships. A little adjustment is needed.
If you are going to do something, do it with excellence!
It is easy to drag our feet and fall into neglect in different areas of our lives. But negligence attracts negligence. So it pays to roll up our sleeves, listen to the way of the Holy Spirit, and act with excellence.
Having a chaperone ... is it relevant?
The young couples that date under the eye of a chaperone is rare. By the way, it’s not even a Bible practice. Yet in many Christian circles, we still hear about it. So, do we leave that in the past, or is it still wise to use it?
No more secret agents!

It's so easy to blame someone else!
When a situation does not go the way we wanted, one of the first human reactions is to find someone responsible. And we are ready to blame anyone, even God!

It's not always the thought that counts
Sometimes we make a gesture with good intentions, but it is poorly received. We thought we were being generous, and the other person was offended. What can we do? And most importantly, can we prevent these confusing reactions?
Dating without thinking about marriage
“No, we’re not thinking of marriage, we are just getting to know each other.” A phrase we hear often and looks good, but it can be very dangerous.
