Contemporary Culture Compromising our Faith and Role in Society
Many contemporary women are struggling with their
role and position in society. The rant today is "what about me" !!!! The
dialogue is Me Myself and I. We should be asking - What about men? I
would like to hear women ask, what is the role of women in context of their
relationship with God and men including and especially our husbands. Are
we engaging in dangerous waters? Yes. The question should not be how to get
along in this culture but how to change the culture rather how to get
back to the what the Bible clearly tells us. We should be trying to get
back to families not just treading water where we are. Today's dialogue
is just hens clucking, rather than trying to address the real problem-
why aren't women discussing their problems in context of being Godly
mothers and wives putting their families first. Why women are not
talking in context of their men. Yes, we are hurting men with this kind
of isolated hand ringing feminine commiserating dialogue. The question
should be - How do I go back to being a Godly woman who puts God first, and
her family next, not herself or her career. Yes, unfortunate things
befall us, we should turn to God always and our husbands. Even for
women who do not marry, my advice, ...do not seek to usurp men in your
career/jobs/community, work with them and acknowledge their authority
and encourage them to seek their authority - God!

While the trouble is that many women in America today are not married the Church ought to be dialoging on ways to improve that - not go along with the culture and allow women to commiserate and focus on themselves. There is nothing "godly" in that!
