Grandbaby #7 is on the way
We are so excited to announce that Ben and Jessa are expecting their second child that is due in February 2017.
I hate that your family is going through what they are with Josh, but I have to say that he is very much the kind of Christian that turns people away from Christ. That is why the support for him wasn't that great, because while he knew he was struggling with his issues he was publicly condeming others, that is probably why the backlash was so severe and folks weren't that merciful. I was so angry when he said gays are a danger to children and belonging to support for family knowing all the while his guilt. I don't wish you or your family any ill will whatsoever, and I hope he recovers but I think humility is in order.
Humility by us all is what's needed. We are all sinners deserving death. What Josh did is horrible, but we are no better. The grace that's been given to us needs to be practiced here.
Thanks for leaving your comments! We answer as many of your questions as we can, but due to the number of comments we receive daily, we are unable to answer every one. Our aim is to post all points of view, but we do not post anything that is profane, insulting, derogatory, or in poor taste.
