Let's Parent on Purpose: Christian Marriage, Parenting, and Discipleship 107 Biblical Womanhood
We live in a world that seeks to define women by their bodies or their tasks. They are either commodities to be exploited or pawns in someone’s agenda. As a father, this breaks my heart. As a pastor, I know it’s evil. Our daughters AND sons need a healthy vision of womanhood that is not tied to an ever-changing image of physical beauty. They also need to see how women are unique image-bearers of God far beyond the tasks they do-whether in the home or in the work force. On this podcast I humbly present a definition rooted in God’s word for our ladies to aspire and our men to affirm.
