Summary
Hosts
God assuredly knows the purposes for which He made His creatures, the proper ends toward which their lives should be oriented. We can order our lives according to God’s Word and God’s design, and He will bless us, or we can rebel against His Word and His design, and we will suffer. When it comes to the issue of woman and her place in creation, practically the whole of modern society has chosen the path of rebellion.
Women today strive for and grasp at nearly every possible path other than the one designated for them by God. Genesis is clear: Woman was made for man to be a helper for him. This is woman’s telos, this is her purpose, and it is also her only chance at happiness and joy. When we rebel against our nature, we find only misery, suffering, and pain; Feminism is rebellion against the nature of woman — it is the embracing of the woman’s curse in the Fall. As Christians, we cannot be Feminists; rather, we must believe, teach, and confess what God says in His Word about woman, her nature, and her purpose.
Then the LORD God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him.”

| 0:00.0 | I'm I'm Welcome to the Stone Choir podcast. I am Corey J. Mahler. |
| 0:41.4 | And I'm Woe. |
| 0:43.4 | Today's episode of Stone Quire as well as next week's episode will both be dealing with the subject of feminism, of women's liberation, of the role and nature of the woman in the Christian life, in the life of the world, |
| 0:57.9 | and the life of the family, and what it means both for Christians and civilizationally, |
| 1:03.7 | when these things are usurped from outside of the church. |
| 1:08.4 | Initially, we had hoped to do this all as one episode, the way we did |
| 1:12.4 | with slavery last week. But as we were sort of talking and discussing and just thinking through |
| 1:17.7 | what we wanted to say, we realized that even speed running, just the scriptural part of this |
| 1:22.8 | was probably going to take, even going in a fast clip, we'll probably blow past 90 minutes today. So rather than trying to shoehorn it all into one, I think we're just going to take, even going in a fast clip, you know, we'll probably blow the last 90 minutes |
| 1:28.0 | today. So rather than trying to shoehorn it all into one, I think we're just going to decide |
| 1:32.5 | up front to split it into two. So today's episode is going to specifically focus on the |
| 1:37.4 | scriptural basis for the ontological difference between man and woman and what God intends by making one of each. |
| 1:47.5 | Why are we different? How are we different? What was the purpose of our being created |
| 1:52.6 | differently and unequally? And once we establish that this week, next week's episode is |
| 1:58.1 | going to specifically deal almost entirely with what has happened really in the West since the Enlightenment. |
| 2:04.2 | It's interesting you can go read through the Wikipedia article in like women's liberation, you know, the role, the evolution of women in society. |
| 2:12.2 | And everything in the West, there's stuff that happened in Greece and Rome. |
| 2:16.8 | And then there's not really any updates |
| 2:19.0 | until the Enlightenment. And the reason for that is that when the last of the pagan kingdoms, |
| 2:25.4 | which were really in Scandinavia, finally adopted Christianity, feminism, as we know it today, |
| 2:33.4 | in any form, died in the West. And there was really |
| 2:36.9 | a homogeneity in the way that Christendom dealt with and viewed women vis-a-vis men. And that |
