Summary of Rebekah Merkle's Eve in Exile and the Restoration of Femininity

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The easiest and most obvious ditch to fall into is building your expectations on your idealized notions of the past. Many women yearn for a different cultural moment, and they try to recreate that culture within the walls of their own home or on the boards of their Pinterest account. This is not only understandable, but it can also be sweet and endearing.

#2 There is a widespread yearning among conservative Christians for a cultural expression of femininity. Some women love the Scarlett O’Hara dresses, while others are drawn to the plucky pioneer look. The decision about which culture to emulate is based entirely on the outfits and surrounding aesthetics.

#3 The church is not supposed to run away from the world, but to charge at it. We are supposed to be besieging the strongholds of our culture, not just a few individual hearts.

#4 The Great Commission is the New Covenant expansion of the Creation Mandate, and it requires that we baptize the world. We must not take ourselves out of the game, or the men will not be able to accomplish what they are supposed to accomplish.
