The Legalistic Trap of Conservative Christian Womanhood w/ Leslie Ludy
Legalism seems to be a constant companion in many conservative Christian circles. The length of ones skirt can become more important than the character of ones heart. Leslie Ludy is joining us on The Girl Defined Show to cast a vision of what true biblical womanhood is all about.

zhlédnutí 1,2KPřed dnem
Have you every read a passage in the Old Testament and thought, "What?! Does God even care about women?" If so, you're not alone. As modern Christian women it's crucial that we dig deeper to understand the context, history, and culture of what is happening in ancient Israel.

Should a Christian Single Woman Pray for Her Future Husband?

We used to be strong supporters of the "praying for your future husband" concept. I, Bethany, wrote letters and prayers for my potential husband from the age of 14 until I got married at 30.

Why So Many Christian Women are Struggling to Make Friends
I'm so happy for the both of you. Congratulations !
Is it possible to get the book recommendations... that you mentioned throughout the video.
1 Tim. 2:11-12 says: “A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent.” The text calls twice for women to be quiet and it does not allow any form of teaching.
I think what helps is how much you two love each other and respect each other's different stories and paths God has for you. If one were pregnant, the other struggling and the pregnant one were not being charitable in her behavior towards the other through her battle with infertility, I believe this would be a much different story. I really admire your love and charity towards each other through the hills and valleys! ❤❤❤
This is so fascinating! I'd love a pt 2! Thanks so much ladies! X
Loved this! ❤
GOD, please, please, please bless that child so she DON'T turn out anything like her mother!!!
Loved this collab! ❤
Zack is such a good man. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
This video is so poorly researched it’s disgusting. All of these issues can be traced back immediately to male perspective. You talk about how god tries to help women, but these oppressive rules that exist are written through men stating they wrote as God. You also use one example and try to state that’s the regular case, when it seems as though it’s emphasized to show how irregular this is.
My dear Girl defined🥰 thank you for being such an inspiration for me as I grew up in the Lord, and now as I continue my growth in Him!
Leslie!!!😂❤❤❤Yes, I grew up reading her books and I own so many of them. My older sister read them and got me started on her and Eric's books. Thank you, Leslie, for doing the work you do!🙏🏻🌸🕊
I love it when people say the story of Adam and Eve are sexist. The devil ignores Adam. Eve does all the talking. She leads Adams in eating the fruit. He does it. Adam's immediate response when God appears is to blame Eve (really not a good look for Adam.) And the New Testament blames Adam, never Eve. It is always Adam's sin. And don't get me started about circumcision.
I own and read Set Apart Feminity. I got it at a church here in town at a His Little Feet concert. I know who Leslie is.
That was so informative! Thank you!!
Kristen you are glowing from the inside out. Praise God for your testimony. We give God all the thanks!
Thank you Katie McCoy! I'm so glad she was interviewed! Yay thank you for this video!
Yes. The Bible is sexist. Most societies were/are matrilineal. And they have been successful for thousands of years. DNA (nature) also takes a matrilineal turn because it is through mDNA you can correctly identify ancestors accurately (Think Romanovs) as well as pass on certain diseases such as hemophilia (again, think Romanovs). There are very powerful women in the Bible like Deborah, Esther, Ruth and Mary. Solomon wrote an entire book about the body of the Queen of Sheba. That woman held a lot of power (according to the song of solomon) One woman brought on the fall of man. But, they are often overshadowed by the role of the man. I may even would revise my first thought and say that it (the Bible) may not be sexist but the people who interpret it are. 🤷🏿♀️
It may be sexist towards us if we pick and chose sexism when we see it convenient. We wouldn’t complain about sexism when the bible teaches men should be our providers, love us to the point of giving their lives for us, treat us with delicacy and honor, etc. Besides, whenever someone preaches about relationships its all about us, not men.
I would. That is because those are all things that I can do for myself. And I have to do those things for myself to know what appreciation, love, and desire feels like for me.
@@lekenaackerman9367 Agree. Which means that since the first date and on we also take initiative, court pursue and romance a guy, contribute to dating expenses (dinners, entertainment, etc.), and so on instead of just showing up to dates and leave it all to the guy, right?
@laylalayla6630 me personally? Yes, I did. And have been happily married for almost 20 years. I have been taught that no one will do things for me, so, if I work for it, I don't want it. I am now raising 4 boys and have 1 that is out on his own. And they are gentlemen that typically date strong women.
@@lekenaackerman9367 Thats good. I don’t agree with women who pick and chose gender roles and traditions only when it benefits them. I might get bad looks from friends but since the first date I contribute to expenses, court pursue romance a man, etc. even though it is expected from me to just show up and leave it all to men. Good to see you did the same since the first date. Hopefully one day more women will agree with us.
@LAYLALAYLA6630 So true! The Bible says men are to lay their lives like Jesus laid down His life for the church. Girls, do you want to trade places ;) ? So thankful for the biblical worldview and there still men out there who adhere to it - they are probably the ones who make this place still tolerable.
This has so much wrong with it I can’t even say it all
First!
I’m so early! Excited to listen to this one
Kristen, I couldn’t be more thrilled for you. Did you have baby girl yet? 😍❤️❤️❤️
Congrats 🎉
You "love motherhood" so much yet it looks like you've aged a decade😂
I guess praying didn't help.
Thank you for sharing ❤
Thank you for sharing your story Kristen. I understand how hard it is when you have faced a lot of disappointment. I have been there as well.
You look fabulous! So happy for you
I actually agree with her on this but not for her reasons 😂 they aren't a good representation of healthy relationships
WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
So glad to hear you are both taking time to enjoy the journey. I’m sure many will miss you, but should understand your kids are only young for so long.
And this is why church and state is separated 💀
Who cares
“Modeling experience” girl you went to a building.
Why do people question their faith in God when they're not getting what they want? Surely that's selfishness.
I disagree. People get disappointed and disappointment often causes your faith to waiver. Compassion please
wow praise God
so did they do fertility treatments like ivf I'm a bit confused?
If my husband, on camera, for thousands to see admitted on our wedding day that he wasn’t attracted to me??? Divorce lol how wildly inappropriate. Like, that was so cruel and disguised as “help” Just like all of Christianity
Congratulations guys ! GOD IS GOOD AND FAITHFUL ! 😊GOD BLESS YOU AND PROTECT YOU GUYS ! AMEN.
FOLLOWER FROM BRAZIL SINCE 2017, I am so so so thrilleeeeeeeeeeeed for you. God is faithful...Praise His NAME!! May God Bless your pregnancy, delivery and may this baby be born with much health.
