As women grow in godliness, they are better equipped to nurture and service in their families, to enrich the church, and to evangelize their communities.

Titus 2: 2: 1,3-6

But as for you speak the things which are proper for sound doctrine

The olderwomen, likewise,that they are reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not given to much wine, teachers for good things, that they admonish the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be discrete, chaste, homemakers, good obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be blasphemed. Likewise, exhort the young men to be sober minded.
