I’ve been spending a lot of time thinking about the plight of young women today. In this chat, I discuss some resources I’ve been using as I sort through my thoughts regarding how we as Christian women should respond.
Mentioned in the chat:
- Suzanne Venker on YouTube (This is the one that repeatedly popped up in my feed and I finally watched it and found her channel: Dads, Stop pressuring your daughters to be high achievers!)
- Eve in Exile: The Restoration of Femininity (book) and “Eve In Exile: Restoration of Femininity” with Rebekah Merkle on Canon+ (The documentary post is now deleted since I no longer recommend Canon+.)
I hope you find this encouraging!
Our oldest has had several situations where she preferred to back off, wait, or quit entirely, instead of pushing through as we would have liked her to. Sometimes it is a difference in priorities; other times she has started up again later after she gained a bit more maturity. A lot can change in a year.
