This site is owned by Rachel Ramey. I am a homeschool graduate and wife to Michael. My husband is gifted
and trained to be a pastor but, as we are currently without a church, paints for
a living (walls, not fine art). So far we have one daughter, Ariel, who is four-and-a-half,
and another wee one expected to make his/her appearance in late May or early June.
My Hobbies
I enjoy reading, scrapbooking and other crafts, and collecting and sharing information. :)
I also enjoy whole foods cooking, the study of health and nutrition, and working
on this site. My ever-curious mind also enjoys the study of Scripture and "iron-sharpening"
discussions.
What My Family Believes
We are Sovereigntist (Read "Calvinist" if it makes more sense to you :) ),
meaning we believe in the Doctrines of Grace/Canons of Dordt
as put forth by the Synod of Dordt (not Calvin!) in 1618-19.
We are credobaptist, meaning we believe in the baptism of confessing believers
(and not their babies).
We are non-cessationist, meaning we believe the gifts of the Holy Spirit were
never revoked (although many are much abused).
We believe men and women have clearly-defined God-ordained roles.
We believe that the purpose of the Church meeting is to worship God and equip the
saints for ministry.
We believe the responsibility for training and educating children rests solely
on the shoulders of their parents.
We believe that the Bible is absolutely and literally true, and is to be our
standard in every area of life without exception.
