Where is a woman's worth? Is it tied up in positions of what she's allowed to do, including inside the church?

Is it wrapped up in achievement or success? Who defines what achievement and success are for the woman?

Today I am addressing three lies, toxic feminism preaches to women, and what we can do to be women who are faithful in all things,

as it says in First Timothy.

This is part one and a two-part series.

Welcome to the She Proves Faithful Podcast, episode number 213,

Truth and Encouragement to live gospel-centered lives

every day. I'm your host, Lauren Lushak. Hi, everyone. Welcome to the podcast. My name is Lauren,

and I'm so glad you're here. I'm so excited for today's podcast. In fact, I was writing it out,

and then sometimes, you know,

you because there is this toxic femininity that is lying to us in so many ways. And I'm going to

talk about this in the episode, but even if we've been believers for a long time or even if we were

raised in a really godly home, Feminism is in all of us.

It's in the flesh. I mean, it is part of the curse where God said, you will desire your husband,

but he will rule over you. I mean, we're taught it in culture. We're taught it in social media.

But truly, it's woven into our flesh because of the fall. Now, the gospel says in Romans that the transgression, the trespass happened through one man, Adam,

and therefore we're all under Adam if we're not under Christ.

And because of that one trespass, all are condemned and death will be reaped.
