This chapter was so on target for where we are in our culture. It is an interesting thing how culture affects our thought processes and worldview. But, most of us don’t give our culture much thought. It is amazing to see how the American culture has changed over the last hundred years. Shocking, really. If you can imagine it…the refrigerator wasn’t invented in 1909. The Titanic hadn’t sunk. The first world war hadn’t begun. That all happened less than one hundred years ago! Now, let’s see how the American culture has changed and much of it because of the waves of feminism that has affected our culture. This chapter deals with the third wave of feminism, “porn positive” feminism and its rise in the 1990’s.

Mommy Wars - This chapter deals with how our society degrades motherhood. She said in the new economy (during the Industrial Revolution), work solely mattered if you could put a price on it. Around 1900, the census began to officially classify wives/mothers and daughters without paying jobs as “dependants”. Women were previously noted as families engaged in a particular enterprise. Interesting, huh? If you aren’t bringing home the bacon, then you have no real worth. Now, what is truly interesting to me about this, is this is not the CHURCH saying women do not have worth…but our “liberated culture”. To me, if I was FOR WOMEN’S RIGHTS, I would be FOR anything women want to do with their lives. They are free to make their own choices. But, no, they aren’t for what YOU want…they are for what THEY want for your life. Got it? :) Really, what the feminist agenda is going after is an anti-God society.

“Though the marketplace does not value the home beyond what goods can be purchased for it, the ministry to be found there is of immense worth to the Lord. The stability of the family relationships, the care of elderly or disabled family members, the discipling and training of children, the warm reception of guests, the making of a lifetime of memories, the daily modeling of biblical instruction, the fresh nourishment in an age of processed foods that contribute to our general ill health, the joy of a Christ-centered marriage - all of these things have long-lasting, if not eternal, effects.”

It seems we understand the importance of leadership and the significance of roles and leadership and submission in other areas of our lives, but not when it relates to marriage. Christian marriage is supposed to point the world to Christ. We are an example of how the church relates to Christ. The Bible states in I Cor 11 that Christ is head of the church, the man is the head of the wife. If we are not submissive in our dealings with our husbands…wouldn’t it also be fair to say that we are saying to the world, the church is not submitted to Christ?

We are going to tackle a “hot topic” as our first book. Submission. Godly submission. Ugg! I know what you are thinking, what I don’t know can’t hurt me! But, if we don’t understand how something is affecting our relationships, churches, marriages & families - we are left to our own ideas on how to [...]
