My review of, "Eve in Exile" by Rebekah Merkle:I found this to be an unbelievably refreshing perspective, she gave no quarter to the feminist movement, and the horrendous effect that it has had on the home and thus society.We Christian women really have no idea how much we have let the anti-biblical feminist worldview permeate our thinking and even how we view God's word, and how we so often let it be our hermeneutic while reading scripture. We far too often want a scripture to conform to our ideals instead of letting scripture form our ideals.I loved how she dealt with women who think if we could just go back to by gone era, be it the pioneer days or the 1950s when we perceive as a more godly or virtuous time, that will save us some how from the moral decay that we see all around us today.But that simply isn't the case, but it is however a terrible form of escapism, which fundamentally allows the decay to continue unabated.She also dealt really the lie that woman's life is only fulfilled if she is working out side of the home. Which has been patently debunked, especially when you see the rates women are medicating themselves to be able to cope with a role that biologically they were not designed for. While also not condemning the women who need to work in order to be a help meet to their husbands and by so doing are bringing glory to God for being obedient to the task that they are given.She tackle the tough subject of us, women despising our fertility and the feminist mantra of demanding for fertile wombs to be barren. That we godly woman who are Christ are commanded to fill the earth, this is a command exclusively given to women and we need to be obedient to that task. While at the same time dealing with the fact that ultimately this is heart issue. So, even women who are unable to for what ever reason, need to have a heart to fill the earth, if nothing else, by using their God given talents to bring glory to God and minister to the body of Christ.This book gave me a renewed vision for being the glory of my husband and in so doing bringing glory to God, to find the best way to serve God by finding the best ways I can serve my husband and children.It made me more excited about the power I have to shape the lives of my children and how God has given me and blessed me with 6 of them and how as the wife and mother, my job is to sharpen the arrows God has given me, so they can destroy the enemies of Christ Jesus.It has given me much to think about in terms of my own talents and how I can use them more effectively to not only bear good fruit but bring glory to God.It gives a kingdom mandate for women. Honestly more women need to read this book.I love that she didn't give you a to do list for saving Western Civilization from the decay of feminist horde, but encourage women to find the roles God has for them and to grow and bloom in that role. What God would have me do is not necessarily what He has for you do, together we can put the bricks back in the foundation that wrecking ball of feminism has wrought.Remember no time frame of history is perfect, but we must do what God has commanded us to do, no matter the circumstances. The consistent thing through out history is God's sovereignty over all creation. How can we women bring glory to God?
