During World War II, women entered the work force in great  numbers because so many men were fghting overseas. (Tis  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. Tis was direct and brazen disobedience to God\u2019s Word, and it  was evidence that many homes and churches were following  society rather than Scripture. \u201cTat 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). Te working mother phenomenon lef children without close  parental supervision and training, and the devil has flled 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  infuence on them. In the absence of a full-time mother, a  child will naturally seek guidance, companionship and  fulfllment 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,  449not 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 unfulflling, demeaning role,  but because you have been called to the high and noble office  of a homemaker; a responsibility with unmeasureable  rewards, heavy demands, great fulfllment, 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 different situation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I have been\nlooking for a good book written by a Christian on the subject of the problems\nin the modern church today, especially in the area of the effect of feminism!\nWell here it is &#8230;.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cultural Factors in the Weakening of Churches<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following are some of the factors that\nhave weakened the character of Bible-believing churches over the past 70 years\nand<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>helped create a mixed\nmultitude philosophy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Theological Liberalism<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The Public School System<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Materialism and Working Mothers<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The Rock &amp; Roll Pop Culture<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Pop Psychology<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The Feminist Movement<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Self-Esteemism<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>New Evangelicalism <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Television<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The Internet<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What is the real problem?
