Rachel Held Evans has decided to live like a Biblical woman for one year. You would think that would be great but she apparently has an incredibly bad idea of what Biblical womanhood actually is. To her it means this: (Click through to see video)
Some of these ideas she has are incredibly offensive and betray a lack of understanding of true womanhood. And that’s the point. She is trying to make the Biblical idea of Complementarianism, the belief that God gave men and women different and complementary roles, into an anachronism that is irrelevant for today. It shows that this poor woman doesn’t understand the difference between the Old Testament law and the New Testament freedom we have in Christ. She mixes in just enough truth (Wives should submit to the leadership of their husbands) with enough inapplicable error (Women should cover their head)(Does she not realize that her husband IS her covering?) to make all of the truth appear to be silly and outdated.
I hope you sell a lot of books because it will be the only reward you ever get from them.
