Christian women. This term can conjure up many images to many people depending on the context. And they are not always positive. We as Christian women can often go from feeling so understood, loved and accepted while in Bible Study to ridiculed, pitied and ostracized when entering a secular setting. Sometimes our positions can feel threatened or hard to define to an unbeliever. Sometimes we feel as if we are looked at as being duped – after all they seem to all know scriptures on “submission,” women being quiet and that the man is the head of the home. Those small glimpses of a greater Gospel message of love, when taken out of context, can even tempt many Christian women to find places of worship that swing to the opposite end of these statements.
I read this entry today, written by Mary Kassian, in an excellent blog sent out by The Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood which gave a solid retort to some of this thinking. I wanted to share with you all: view article. May you find your secure position in light of truth, handed down from your King-Father, before time began.
Love to you all!
