207. The Real Proverbs 31 Woman

Ancient Jesus/Future Faith

Will the real Proverbs 31 woman please stand up?

We read the Proverbs 31 passage every Mother's Day, with the implication that the "virtuous wife" is not only a wife, but a mother too. But is that really what Proverbs 31 says? Over the years, this passage has been used to tell women that they are only "virtuous" if they play those domestic roles. But what about working women? What about childless women? What about single women? 

Tana, Sarah, and Don explore what Proverbs 31 actually says and why it should never be used to limit the role of women.

Passages discussed: Proverbs 31, Matthew 25
