The quote that caught my eye I thought you'd be interested in stated, "Some call for women to drop out of the workforce to live closer to the ‘biblical’ family model. Women have always worked. Proverbs 31 provides the template of a virtuous woman. Those who follow her example today would be the CEO of a multinational conglomeration with interests in agriculture, manufacturing, and social welfare while her husband is engaged in politics. Her household includes her husband, children and servants. Unfortunately many people view the 1950 suburban family as the ideal. We cannot return to the biblical agrarian culture or the economic expansion of the 1950 middle class. The church has to face the challenges of the 21st century in a multitude of contexts."
