We've been seeing #TradWives pop up all over our socials. What are they, are they inspirational, should we strive to become them? We don't draw any hard-and-fast conclusions in this episode, but we have a fun time talking about it!

We think living by 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 is wise: "...make it your ambition to lead a quiet life: You should mind your own business and work with your hands, just as we told you, so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody."

What do you think? Should all Christians live "simply"? Listen in for the 11 things related to possessions, habits and mindset that we quit to live more simply.

We chatted for 1.5 hours, so we split this discussion into two parts! Let's finish our discussion about the Proverbs 31 woman, and at around 22 minutes, we overview the characteristics that we think we're doing well with *and* and ones we plan to focus on improving this month. Thanks for being here!

The Proverbs 31 is considered the IDEAL WOMAN in Christian communities, but are her characteristics unattainable? Should all Christian women strive to be like her? What qualities does she have, and how does diving deep into Proverbs 31 help strengthen our faith and relationships? We couldn't stop chatting about this one, so we split it into two parts!
