This all came to a head this week over a recent post from Church Public Relations that highlights a husband supporting his wife’s education and career. Sounds harmless… until the comments section lights up. Faithful members are pushing back, pointing out that this doesn’t align with what they were taught about women’s roles in the home. Is this a shift? A reframe? Or something else entirely?
