What does it mean to be a holy woman in a modern world? Megan Madden writes about finding fulfilment in taking a traditional role in the home, and why she believes it glorifies God.
It was August of 2017 and I had just arrived in Austria with my husband and three children. We moved from Florida to a small town called Trumau—located outside of Vienna—for my husband’s theological studies. As a side project to my motherhood I decided that I should take advantage of the adventure and, since we lived on campus, take a few graduate courses on marriage and family studies.
I never finished those studies due to pregnancies (a couple of which we lost). But I had no qualms with not finishing because it sparked in me a great desire to understand what it means to be a holy woman in our modern world.
