A Word: God is Calling our Spouses.

Nabal, Abigail, and David -SUMITES in the Bible- Summer Bible Study
We left our story in 1 Samuel 25 with Abigail meeting David with provisions and a great big “SORRY.” Whew, that sorry and the honor she bestowed upon David saved probably more than 100 people from bloodshed.

Who Is Abigail? SUMites of the Bible Summer Study
Todays passage, 1 Samuel 25. Abigail was married to a wicked, unbeliever, Nabal (Hebrew name means mean, base, vile, unbeliever) who denied support to the future King of Israel. And if you read through 1 Samuel 25 again today, you will notice how much this woman was a woman of deep faith. And just as…

From A Black Friend to My White Friends
SUMites, We need to chat. I realize that we don’t often take on social issues here at SUM as we are trying to focus on our marriages. However, I know that so much of my marriage discord would rise to the surface because of the social climate, politics, and religion. So, today, I am compelled…

About Our Homes…The Heavenly Perspective
Hi friends, Ann here. Today I want to share something that God showed me about the homes within this community: the Spiritually Unequal Marriage community.
