In this episode we spoke with Sheila Wray Gregoire, founder of Bare Marriage and the author of many books, and Marissa Burt, author of the upcoming Brazos book “The Myth of Good Christian Parenting: How False Promises Betrayed a Generation of Evangelical Families.”
Dominion theology begets dominating over families. Sex becomes a conquering act, not the beautiful union of a man and a woman who love one another. Women are receptacles for the pleasure of men, marriage a plan for taking over the world, and spanking kids the key to obedience and warriors in the quiver of the father. Mothers required only because they’re needed for the birth, not because they contribute anything, but because men can’t do it on their own.
Sex is beautiful, families are beautiful, and children are beautiful. But none of these are ultimate. All of these are wonderful blessings of God. But none are tools for our gain.
The Savior came not to be served, but to serve, and give his life a ransom for many. The King who came not to rule, but to give.
