So many of the single girls my age in the Apostolic church I attend are very independent and career-oriented....as opposed to family-oriented. (I was almost afraid to write this sentence for fear of being called a sexist.)
So, as a young guy, it's always interesting and refreshing to hear of young women who are not afraid to be different and challenge the norm.
This is a really interesting (and, I'm sure really controversial) blog:
http://joyfullyathome.blogspot.com/
It is written by a 19-year-old stay-at-home daughter named Jasmine Baucham, a conservative Baptist....(and, yes, her father is the well-known Baptist preacher Voddie Baucham). She covers topics such as feminism, gender roles, home schooling, etc. She's an excellent writer and seems very intelligent beyond her age. The blog is female-oriented, but some of the topics would be of interest to anyone.
Some of her blog posts include:
- Family Dynamics and the Adult Daughter
- Independence and Daughterhood
- Is It a Sin to Work Outside the Home?
- Should Young Women Go to College?
- The Plight of the Stay-at-Home Daughter
- Ten Reasons I Don't Want to Be VP When I "Grow Up" (

As Apostolics, what do you all think about this blog? Is homemaking becoming outdated?
