Life To The Full with Nancy Campbell

Did you know that 100 years ago women only menstruated 100 times during their reproductive life? Now, most modern women are menstruating up to 400 times during their lives. What is this doing to the modern woman? Painting: “Mother" by M. Ivasyuk 1908

How can I live a blissful life in the middle of chaos? How can I have another baby if I have physical problems? What are the special blessings God designed for a nursing mother?

What does it really mean that “women will be saved through childbearing”? Does it mean through childbirth or through mothering? We discover the glorious understanding of the Greek word, “sozo.” 

Serene of Trim Healthy Mama is with me again for a third session. What a miracle. Serene shares testimonies of obstacles and difficulties she faced in embracing life. What does the Bible call a pregnant woman?

God not only wants us to love people, but to love them fervently. How can we tangibly love people? Serene joins me again as we continue discussing the preciousness of life. What is Satan’s trio of destruction? Do we take a stand against abortion? What about contraception and sterilization? Should they be discussed on this subject of life?

I am joined today by my daughter, Serene Allison of Trim Healthy Mama. We begin the subject of not only being on the side of life, but adamantly advocating for life. We make it a habit to choose life in every situation, from conception to the grave. 

God not only wants us to be obedient, but WHOLE HEARTEDLY obedient. We talk about how to teach our children to be obedient. God not only wants us to read His Word, but to be RICHLY filled with His Word.  God not only wants us to speak His truth, but to BOLDLY proclaim His truth. We talk about ways to do this even while in our homes and caring for our children.  More points next week.

God not only wants us to be courageous, but VERY courageous. God not only wants us to be righteous, but UNCOMPROMISINGLY righteous. God not only wants us to avoid evil, but to ABHOR evil. God not only wants us to shine, but to SHINE greatly. God not only wants us to be fruitful, but EXCEEDINGLY fruitful. More next week.

God’s Word is filled with adjectives. It leads us into a greater realm. It’s never normal or status quo.  It’s over the top. It’s above and beyond. Exceedingly abundant. Find out how we can live this kind of lifestyle. 

God has given us every good thing we need to enable us to mother in victory rest, joy, cheerfulness, patience, and longsuffering. How can this work in our daily lives? Plus, Cherish Allison joins me again for this pod. She talks about life in the Allison family—family communication and interaction. We have the power to make the kind of life we want in our family lives.  

Introducing granddaughter, Cherish Allison. Oh yes, Cherish is the head of CNN on the hilltop? What CNN is this? You’ll find out. We also talk about books and more books. And BOOK PARTIES. And the best book to read!

Pam Fields joins me for one more session. I talk about homeschooling in the spirit of “rest and refreshing” (Isaiah 28:9-12). Pam shares how the manual, THE POWER OF MOTHERHOOD taught her how to be a mother. She purchased this book 22 years ago. Now she has purchased the edited and enlarged edition for her daughter who is expecting her second baby. Every mother needs this manual beside her. Purcha...

Pam shares her story. She came into marriage wanting two children and expecting to work full time. Instead she ended up with nine children and homeschooling? How did this happen? We discuss the different ways to teach out children? Because God is a God of knowledge and all the fullness of knowledge dwells in Him, we should create in our children a passion to thirst after knowledge. Because we are...

Introducing Pam Fields from Oregon, mother of nine children and has organized many Above Rubies retreats. Pam shares her wonderful idea of PRAYER BRACELETS and how they help her to pray for each of her children each day. You can check out how to make them at this link: https://tinyurl.com/PrayerBracelets   We also talk about the POWER OF PLODDING. Much of life consists of plodding on each day but...

Introducing my daughter, Pearl Barrett of Trim Healthy Mama, although I am sure you already know Pearl and her sister Serene. I guess you already listen to their famous THM Poddy (about 200,000 listeners)! You will love listening to Pearl again today as we talk together about grandmothering. And then we get to talk about marriage-and intimacy in marriage (one of Pearl's favorite subjects-and...

As God creates a new life, we see Him as the first artist, sculptor, embroiderer, needle worker, potter, architect, scribe, and more. Psalm 139 reveals His Omniscience, His Omnipresence, His Omnipotence, His Omni-benevolence, and His Omniscience. Lots of teaching to bless you in this podcast.

God loves to keep secrets and He loves to give surprises. Do you love surprises too?

God calls the creating of the baby in the womb “marvelous” (Psalm 139:14). God uses many adjectives in His Word. We then look up the adjective in the Hebrew to understand the word and we get more adjectives! The full understanding of this Hebrew word means “extraordinary, wonderful, miraculous, astonishing, and difficult. It is the revelation of God doing things beyond the bounds of human powers o...

God creates each new baby separately, uniquely, and distinguished. Every new baby is a DESIGNER CHILD! A MASTERPIECE! All the remarkable inventions, astounding advancements, brilliant discoveries, and amazing feats (both intellectually and physically) cannot happen without a person being born. They can’t happen without the womb. Without the womb NOTHING happens in this world. It all comes to a scr...

Beginning the new series of discovering the glorious and biblical description of a baby conceiving and growing in the womb. There's more to discover from Psalm 139:13-18 than you could dream.

When you act like a queen, your husband will act like a king. Rise up and live like a queen, speak like a queen, dress like a queen, and enjoy being queen of your home.  Q & A: What do you say to folks when they say, “I’M DONE!” In other words, I don’t want any more children. What’s the answer?

God established men to govern. But are women subservient? No. Women REIGN! God wants us to be queens, ruling and managing our household domain.  I also answer the question: “How do I as a young mom, learn to find my identity in Christ and not in motherhood?” What the answer?

I talk about the Fatherhood of God. Did you know that God established the roles of father and mother BEFORE there was ever a father and mother on the earth? We check the Scriptures to find out what God says about male headship. Controversial subject to many, but we've got to go back to the Word. Eight points in all-six in this session.

<p>In this podcast we talk about caring for an elderly relative in the home. We talk about life from conception to the grave. We talk about building or destroying our homes. And I begin answering your questions. You can email questions to me at nancy@aboverubies.org </p>

In Jeremiah 29 we read a message from THE LORD OF HOSTS to the exiles in Babylon. Although these Judeans were now captives in a foreign land, God comes to them through the prophet to tell them seven things He wants them to do in Babylon. They are a reiteration of what He told them in the very beginning, but He reminds them that He doesn’t want them to stop doing these things just because they are...
