Part 3: Feminist vs. Biblical Influence

How We Have Been Influenced - 7. "My children are lazy and disrespectful. There's nothing I can do. I'm just their maid."

How We Can Change - 7. "My children are lazy and disrespectful. My responsibility is to bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord. I can glorify God whether they do or not." (Deut. 6:4-9, Eph 6:4)

How We Have Been Influenced - 8. "I deserve better than this."

How We Can Change - 8. "If I got what I really deserved, it would be death and hell. I am here to serve the Lord however He chooses." (Romans 5:8-11, 6:23)

How We Have Been Influenced - 9. "Nobody is going to tell me what to do."

How We Can Change - 9. "Lord, let my desire be more to please You and for You to have Your way in my life than it is for me to rebel against You." (Psalm 19:13-14, 119:9-16)

Caryn,

I just want to say I love your blog! It is always gives me things to think about and encourages me. I am really enjoying your notes from the Women's conference. I was not able to go this year - so your summary of the way feminism has influenced women is great. May God bless you as you continue to write.
