When it comes to issues concerning women and the church, we have to obey the standards and precepts God sets before us, whether it fits with the worldly opinion or not. Currently the world believes that men and women are "the same," and should not have separate roles or positions. They believe in fantasy things like 50/50 marriages, egaliterianism (spelled correctly?), and so forth.
However, God sets forth a different standard. We are to recognize and celebrate the differences that God has created in us by separating us into men and women. We are to recognize our gender-based roles, and to willingly (and not grudgingly) pursue our roles with ambition and godly desire."
"And for those godly women out there who are truly pursuing Christ but feel confused or even hurt by these teachings, there is great comfort in knowing that if you trust in God, He will send a man your way that will not make submission an issue for you. You'll gladly recognize your husband's authority and rest safely in his loving protection and leadership
