“Hello! May I ask two questions if that’s alright with you? I’ve read some stuff on the internet about you, and I just would love to know where your heart is on such matters and just hear the truth! 1) Do you really think that a Christian single lady with no husband in sight is sinning if she’s working in a noble job such as a nurse, teacher, or any other field in that area? (I go to a very sound doctrinal church. We go verse-by-verse, chapter-by-chapter, and I’ve never heard this preached about single ladies.) Also, some women get married way later, and their parents might have a hard time supporting an adult daughter or daughters. It just doesn’t make sense for them not to work when single. 2) Do you think mothers are never allowed to visit their friends or grab a coffee with them, occasionally go shopping, or do something they really enjoy like going on a run, etc.? I’ve read from many that you really hate mothers doing things they enjoy occasionally. I’ve read that you think they should be in their physical home twenty four seven. I would love to clear this up.”

Is it sinful for single women to be in the workforce? I cannot say that it absolutely is or isn’t, but I will give a few of my observations. From studies and statistics, we know women weren’t created for the workforce. They get twice the amount of stress-related diseases than men do. We are the weaker vessel. God created women for the home. There was no woman in the Bible who was away from her home all day working for a boss and paycheck. There was no workforce back in biblical times like there is today. It all began with the Industrial Revolution. (Here is a recent video I made: Was the Proverbs 31 Woman a Career Woman?)

In order to be a nurse or a teacher, a woman must go deeply into debt and be indoctrinated into Marxism (colleges and universities). This debt keeps them in bondage to their career for many years. Plus, many women who were raised in Christian homes, walk away from the faith during college. I know young women with children who must continue working after having children due to their debt, and their husbands like the money they make. Nurses have inhumane hours, and teaching a large classroom of children is extremely exhausting and stressful. Nursing is extremely exhausting and stressful too. Women in the workforce suffer more miscarriages and infertility.

If young women need to make an income, it’s better to find work that doesn’t require a college education, debt, and indoctrination. They can be a nanny or something that fits with their nurturing nature that isn’t so exhausting and stressful. There are many ways to make money from home these days. They can tutor children, help an elderly couple or young mother, or even do accounting from home. Ask the Lord for wisdom. He will provide a way!

Do I believe mothers are never allowed to visit friends, grab coffee with them, go shopping, or go on a run? Do I hate them doing things they enjoy? No. You won’t find these statements in anything I have ever written. This is what God has to say about young women: “And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not. I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.” (1 Timothy 5:13,14)

Women are free to meet with their friends, go shopping, go for a walk or run, etc. I meet with my sisters and friends about once a month. I go on walks daily. I go shopping at least once a week. But, the majority of time should be in their homes keeping them clean and tidy, raising their children which is a full-time job with great rewards, and being help meets to their husbands.

I hope this answers your questions!

And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men.
Colossians 3:23
