Religion Must Give Women More Choices

My recent book, The Making of Biblical Womanhood, has caused quite a bit of stir among evangelical Christian circles. Evangelicalism in the U.S. is one of the religious groups that are the least comfortable with women working outside the home. We know that women in these groups have been leaving the workforce, not in huge numbers, but it has certainly has been a decline since the early 2000s. This seems to be connected to some of the theological teachings that evangelical Christians have imbibed.
