Sit Down & Obey. This is Your Lot in Life: Marriage in the Evangelical Movement

Women are called to be a helper; silent and submissive. There is an entire offshoot of Christian books dedicated to teaching women how to be a Godly wife. So why is this problematic? 
Melissa and Amanda sit down and discuss the expectations that were placed on them as wives at "Come As You Are," some of the popular books and studies that were used to teach them how to be good wives and how it all caused chaos in their lives. 

Sit Down & Obey. This is Your Lot in Life: Marriage in the Evangelical Movement is Episode 8 of Chapter 1
