Motherhood
The Northwestern Lutheran
Mothers Who Are Men-Makers
A good mother has something to do with making a man anything he is of any character or usefulness. Happy the boy who had such a mother! Happy the mother who has a boy so appreciative of his mother's formative influence!
1925 John H. C. Fritz Walther League Messenger
The Ideal Wife
When a Christian young man has such a wife for his spouse, namely, a Christian, home-loving young woman, he will live with her and with their children in a blessed and happy home, and marriage then will be what the Lord intended that it should be.
1921 Carl Manthey-Zorn Northwestern Publishing House
Prevention of Pregnancy
How can such hearts be graced with faith and fear of the Lord and with the mind of a child of God? How can God’s blessing rest upon such a home? We verily believe that God’s wrath hovers there.
1921 Carl Manthey-Zorn Concordia Publishing House
The Blessed Vocation of Motherhood
What a blessed thing to be a wife and mother! This is a vocation that is well-pleasing unto God, for God has instituted the estate of matrimony and ordained all that it comprises.
