After just a few visits to “Welcome to My Brain” (www.christinemoers.blogspot.com), the blog of a Baptist preacher's wife, you'll feel like you know Christine Moers. The former Dallas resident who now lives in Oklahoma writes with honesty and familiarity about sex and depression, homeschooling and weight loss, money and marriage. She doesn't hesitate to disagree with James Dobson, encourages readers to learn about global warming and extols the virtues of breastfeeding. She sports a small nose ring, encourages her kids to be crafty, and preaches the importance of living within your means. Some of her postings might make some members of her husband's congregation blush, but you get the idea that she doesn't care much about what others think. She seems to place more emphasis on how her life aligns with the teachings of Jesus and how she can best honor God.
