most of my time is spent being a wife and a mom & I like it that way

[Summer Jaeger @SummrWrites]

🏫Our friend Tilly recently launched her program called “Wife School”, which garnered the attention of far-flung journalists and shocked and appalled bystanders – What do you MEAN women should submit to their husbands? What do you MEAN we shouldn’t notice what’s wrong with the house?

🎙️Actually you guys, what we believe is far bigger, better, and more healthy than that. This week we hand Tilly the microphone and let her explain her desire in building Wife School, and how we as Christians can JOYFULLY take up our mantle in our homes in a way the world just is not going to comprehend.

Natural and general revelation make it clear that the best place for a woman is in her father’s home & then in her husband’s. I don’t think this can be fairly argued against.

Still, not every woman has a godly father - many women don’t have a father at all - and are waiting for God to bring them into a godly marriage.

I know these young women personally. They got their degrees. They did nothing with them but wait for marriage and feel lost in the meantime. It’s incredibly sad. They’re incredibly sad.

Exceptions don’t make rules. Speaking in generalities is not a microaggression. But these are real people and they are missing out on being fruitful in their waiting because they aren’t even sure how to be fruitful.

I don’t think careerism is the answer.

But I also don’t think that’s necessarily what Ligonier lady was saying. Maybe she was. I didn’t watch the full interview.

At least, in the case of many lovely young women I know, they would acknowledge they wasted a ton of time pursuing a degree, doing nothing with it, and staring at the ceiling asking God why He hadn’t brought them a man yet. It’s a real problem.

Too many young people believe getting a degree will be some sort of North Star that guides them, then they get their diploma and have no clue what to do next.

Happy to report many of my college aged friends are now happily married.

It’s worth asking what those sweet ladies should do who are not married, are living godly lives, and must support themselves, ought to be doing. Surely there is one or two or ten of them in your church.

It’s never a bad time to consider what fruitfulness looks like when you’re in a season where the marching orders aren’t black and white.

My 10 month old is trying to walk.

My 10 year old daughter told me, “When he falls, you have to gaslight him into thinking it didn’t hurt by smiling and clapping for him. Works every time.”

Ok ok ok ok

@eannielsen Agree!

[Summer Jaeger @SummrWrites]

Two things can be true at the same time:

1. Marriage is normative & to be pursued

2. Anything can be pursued sinfully, making it an idol

It’s not that hard.
