During World War II, women entered the work force in great numbers because so many men were fighting overseas. (This phenomenon had begun in World War I, but it exploded in World War II.) When the war ended, the trend toward working moms did not stop. Instead of being content with living on the father\u2019s paycheck while the mothers attended to the essential business of keeping the home and caring for the children, mothers and fathers both entered the work force. This was direct and brazen disobedience to God\u2019s Word, and it was evidence that many homes and churches were following society rather than Scripture. \u201cThat they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed\u201d (Titus 2:4-5). The working mother phenomenon left children without close parental supervision and training, and the devil has filled the void. Ron Williams, founder of Hephzibah House in Winona Lake, Indiana, has many decades of experience working with troubled children from Christian homes. He issues the following warning: \u201cSmall wonder many children and young people forge such strong loyalties to peers even though they are an adverse influence on them. In the absence of a full-time mother, a child will naturally seek guidance, companionship and fulfillment from another source. Loyalties that should have been cemented with his parents and family are instead farmed out to evil-charactered peers readily provided by a satanically-dominated world. Mom, your children need you, <br> not a surrogate hireling. You cannot be replaced by another. God has called you to be a \u2018keeper at home,\u2019 not to stunt your creativity or imprison you in an unfulfilling, demeaning role, but because you have been called to the high and noble o\ufb03ce of a homemaker; a responsibility with unmeasureable rewards, heavy demands, great fulfillment, and inestimable blessing for you, your husband, and your children.\u201d If a married woman doesn\u2019t have children or if her children are grown or if she can work part time without causing any harm to her family, that is a di\ufb00erent situation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Discipling Church: The Church That Will Stand until Christ Comes Copyright 2017 by David Cloud This edition October, 2017 Page 457,458<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wayoflife.org\/free_ebooks\/downloads\/The_Discipling_Church.pdf\">https:\/\/www.wayoflife.org\/free_ebooks\/downloads\/The_Discipling_Church.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Materialism and Working Mothers Another key factor in the weakening of churches over the past 60 years is the breakdown of the home, and one of the chief causes of this is the frenzied pursuit of wealth and comfort with the accompanying phenomenon of working mothers.
