Episode 278: Why Don't Evangelical Women Want to Marry Evangelical Men?
Send us a textAl Mohler, president of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, recently did a podcast bemoaning the fact that young women, unlike young men, are giving up on the "creation order" and abandoning marriage. But he distorts the argument, and misses the main problem: Women want to get married, but too many of the men available don't make good partners.

Episode 277: Why Emotions Aren't Feminine (and Why Women Aren't More Emotional!)

And if women are more emotionally mature than men, then doesn't that mean that men need to learn from women?
