Eve in Exile and the Restoration of Femininity

By: Rebekah Merkle

Narrated by: Rebekah Merkle

The swooning Victorian ladies and the 1950s housewives genuinely needed to be liberated. That much is indisputable. So, First-Wave feminists held rallies for women's suffrage. Second-Wave feminists marched for prohibition, jobs, and abortion. Today, Third-Wave feminists stand firmly for nobody's quite sure what. But modern women - who use psychotherapeutic antidepressants at a rate never before seen in history - need liberating now more than ever. The truth is, feminists don't know what liberation is. They have led us into a very boring dead end.

Eve in Exile sets aside all stereotypes of mid-century housewives, of China-doll femininity, of Victorians fainting, of women not allowed to think for themselves or talk to the men about anything interesting or important. It dismisses the pencil-skirted and stiletto-heeled executives of TV, the outspoken feminists freed from all that hinders them, the brave career women in charge of their own destinies. Once those fictionalized stereotypes are out of the way - whether they're things that make you gag or things you think look pretty fun - Christians can focus on real women. What did God make real women for?

Excellent book! Thank you for your wisdom and courage to speak up! Ladies this is a must read!

Beautiful. Repeatable.

Imagine a world where the roles of wife and mother were considered challenging, honorable, and desirable. Oh, you can't? Then you should listen to this book. I've listened through twice and will likely listen to this book many more times. Fabulous book for Christian women who want to reclaim and restore a broken culture that has devalued, deformed, and detested what it means to be a woman.

Highly recommend!

Excellent resource for women and their daughters. I even plan to read it to my husband and sons. Useful guidance for the predicament we find ourselves in after one hundred years of poor choices by our culture with regard to our roles in family and society.

Timely powerful perspective for women and men.

As a husband and father of two college daughters, (no sons) I’ve been on a quest to understand these mysterious creatures in my care now for 22 years. My search for solid and satisfying answers ended on the last page of this book.

Through these chapters, I gained a valuable perspective on how women see themselves, how that has changed over the years in our culture, and the most powerful definition of “what is a woman” from the one who made her in the first place. I learned a lot more also about myself as a man, and my role as a husband, and father.

Thank you Rebekah Merkle! This was Dynamic

Everyone should read this book. Everyone.

Excellent
