| 0:00.0 | Nancy Lee-Demause has noticed something. |
| 0:03.5 | If a woman wants to take charge in a relationship, she'll often find little resistance. |
| 0:09.3 | But I do think there's a tendency on the part of men to say, you women want to be the men? |
| 0:14.3 | Go ahead. |
| 0:15.4 | And a tendency on the part of men to step back and say, you women are going to take charge, we're not going to compete with you for it. |
| 0:23.1 | This is Revive Our Hearts with Nancy Lee DeMoss. It's Tuesday, February 5th. |
| 0:33.1 | God has designed men to play a unique role in the home and church, and he's given women a different role. |
| 0:44.3 | Nancy's been explaining the scriptural basis for this idea, and today she explains why embracing biblical femininity isn't a tedious chore, but a great blessing. |
| 0:57.9 | Well, we've touched on a number of controversial issues over the past several days, and |

| 1:32.0 | So I'm not claiming any infallibility on these issues or any authority on these issues. |
| 1:37.5 | What I've tried to do is take us to the Word of God and show you what I understand the scripture to teach about the roles of women |
| 1:44.0 | and the spirit with which God |
| 1:46.5 | wants women to conduct themselves, Christian women, as we model and exemplify the gospel to our |
| 1:53.0 | world. But now we come to this question. Does all this really matter? Why take, you know, |
| 1:58.5 | two weeks of expensive radio time, airtime to talk about all this issue? |
| 2:02.8 | Is this something we really need to talk about? |
