The Vital Role of Women and Mothers!

Fighting Feminism and the Lowering of Biblical Womanhood of our Day

October 19, 2024 • Dr. Carlton C. McLeod • Genesis 1:26–28, Genesis 2:18–25

In this sermon, Genesis 1:26-28 and Genesis 2:18-25 outline God’s design for women, affirming their identity, purpose, and value within the family and the broader scope of creation. Women are created as Ezers, or helpers, a role that reflects God’s own character and essential support for humanity. In this foundational role, women and mothers carry a profound influence, partnering with men to fulfill God’s mandate to take dominion over the earth.


The sermon challenges today’s cultural narratives, reminding women that their design as helpers and life-givers is not a limitation but a vital part of God’s order. It also addresses the confusion and cultural opposition to biblical womanhood, encouraging women to see their roles through the lens of Scripture rather than societal norms. Women are called to embrace their unique contributions to the family and community, understanding that they reflect God’s glory through their nurturing, strength, and humility.


This message reassures women that by embracing their identity as helpers, mothers, and women of faith, they contribute to God’s vision for a flourishing, godly household. God’s design for women is not a constraint but a call to live out their faith boldly, confidently anchored in God’s Word.
