Gold Digger Show, Season 1, Episode 3: The Cult of Nurtuance in American Christian Culture

Have we made idols out of family, gender roles and, especially, female nurturance? What happens when the beautiful, God-given ability to care for others is warped into the entire purpose for female existence?  We're getting into the nitty gritty of this topic on today's podcast.

Today’s episode asks a controversial, but important, question: Have we made actual idols out of motherhood, married living and, especially, female nurturance?

Christian women are bombarded daily with the message that motherhood is not only the ultimate experience in life, but that it should be the main focus of any good woman. Yet, is this a biblical principle? Or is this merely a Christian cultural standard?

Is there more to a woman’s purpose in life than being a mother and a wife? Is her identity really to be wrapped up in culturally prescribed forms of caregiving?
