I often think how modern women repeat the mantra of how women have always been second class citizens. The insinuation being that now they are as free and powerful as men. Few recognize that women gave up their true power for the current illusion and we are all worse off. The younger generation of women who understand their strength are generally devout Christian women. God Bless them.
One of my favorite GK Chesterton quotes: "Ten thousand women marched through the streets shouting, 'We will not be dictated to,' and went off and became stenographers.” It seems to me we are constantly striving for the illusion of freedom only to find chains of enslavement at the end of that beguiling road. The satisfaction of feminine strength has nothing to do with being "as good as a man."
God's revival will touch everything, every area of life just as you have described - the young and old, the educated and the so-called uneducated, art and daily work. Then the glory is real and touchable. There are many people praying for just this dynamic. Thank goodness there are people like you all that can put it so beautifully into words.

I'm more and more seeing that freedom is simply what we choose to chain ourselves to. Desires or responsibility. That is the question.
I just love your humor and this substack. It hits right.
Couldn't help noticing, women in movies regurgitate f-bombs, even in romantic scenes. Is that really showing their power?
