  • How Do I Stay Rooted in God’s Word When Summer Distracts Me
    How to Stay Rooted in God’s Word When Summer Distracts You Show Summary In this episode of *Anchored in the Word*, Dave Jenkins explores a timely question: How can Christians stay rooted in Scripture when summer distractions pull at our attention? Vacations, longer days, and busy routines can quietly shift our focus away from God’s Word. But the Bible calls us to be like a tree planted by streams of water (*Psalm 1*), flourishing in every season. Join us as we look at key passages—Psalm 1, Joshua 1, Colossians 3, and John 15—and draw insights from church history to help you remain anchored in truth. Listen to the Episode Watch the Episode Staying Rooted in God’s Word This Summer As summer approaches, routines change, and distractions seem to multiply. Vacations, family time, and longer days often lead to the gentle but dangerous drift away from the spiritual habits we’ve worked hard to build. But even in the busiest season, God's Word remains unchanging. Psalm 1:1–3 paints a picture of a person rooted deeply in God's Word, like a tree planted by streams of water. It doesn’t matter the season—the tree flourishes because it is nourished by something that doesn’t change with the weather. This is the type of spiritual stability that God desires for us, even when life feels chaotic. What does it mean to stay rooted in God’s Word this summer? It means choosing to prioritize Scripture over distraction. It doesn’t mean doing more, but being more intentional about how we engage with God’s Word. Whether you're on vacation or staying home, here are a few simple ways to stay grounded: Plan intentional time in Scripture each day—no matter how small. Use the ESV audio Bibles to stay engaged when traveling. Meditate deeply on a single passage, rather than reading widely. Involve your family in Scripture time, making it a part of your daily rhythm.

Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in his commandments! His offspring will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed. Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever. Light dawns in the darkness for the upright; he is gracious, merciful, and righteous. It is well with the man who deals generously and lends; who conducts his affairs with justice. For the righteous will never be moved; he will be remembered forever.

  • Tradwives, Biblical Womanhood, and the Christian Home
    Tradwives, Biblical Womanhood, and the Christian HomeAnchored in the Word with Dave | A Servants of Grace PodcastIn this episode of Anchored in the Word with Dave, Dave Jenkins responds to a listener question about the trending term “tradwife” and how it relates to biblical womanhood and the Christian home.Dave examines this cultural conversation through the lens of Scripture, distinguishing between cultural traditionalism and the biblical complementarity that reflects God’s design for marriage. Whether you're hearing this term for the first time or wrestling with what it means in light of the gospel, this episode offers biblical clarity, wisdom, and grace.🎧 Listen:🎥 Watch:📖 Full Transcript:What Are Tradwives? What Is a Tradwife? Does It Matter?Dave: Welcome to another episode of Servants of Grace! I’m Dave Jenkins, your host, and today’s question comes from a listener who wants to understand more about a term that’s been circulating in online discussions—‘tradwife.’ The listener asks, "What are tradwives? What is a tradwife? Does it matter?"The term 'tradwife' refers to a woman who embraces traditional gender roles, particularly in the context of marriage. But does the idea of a ‘tradwife’ matter, and what does the Bible say about gender roles in marriage? We’ll explore this question today by examining it biblically, theologically, and practically. Let’s dive in.Defining the Term ‘Tradwife’Dave: First, let’s break down what the term ‘tradwife’ means. The word ‘tradwife’ is short for ‘traditional wife.’ It typically refers to a woman who embraces traditional gender roles in marriage—being a homemaker, supporting her husband as the primary breadwinner, and prioritizing family life over a career.The term has gained attention in debates about feminism, gender equality, and family structure. Some view it as a return to “simpler times,” while others see it as a threat to women’s rights. But as Christians, we must ask how this idea aligns with Scripture.Biblical Insights on Gender Roles in MarriageDave: The Bible does teach roles for husbands and wives—not based on culture, but on God's design.Genesis 2:18 — “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him.”Ephesians 5:22–24 — Wives are called to submit to their husbands as the church submits to Christ.Titus 2:3–5 — Older women are to train younger women to love their husbands, work at home, and be kind.These passages emphasize complementarity, not inequality. The husband leads in sacrificial love; the wife supports with wisdom, strength, and devotion. Homemaking is seen as a noble and God-honoring calling—but it’s not the only biblical option.Theological Considerations of the ‘Tradwife’ ConceptDave: The Bible gives us principles, not rigid molds. Not every Christian family will look the same. While the “tradwife” model reflects some biblical values, it shouldn’t be elevated to a standard for all Christian households.Men and women are equal in worth (Genesis 1:27) but distinct in role. The issue is not whether a wife stays home or works outside the home—it’s whether the marriage as a whole reflects God’s design for love, leadership, and service.Does It Matter?Dave: Yes—but not because of labels. What matters is that husbands and wives live out their God-given roles faithfully. A woman who chooses homemaking in obedience to the Lord is honoring God. A woman who works outside the home but still submits to biblical order can honor Him too.Don’t let the culture define your marriage—let God’s Word do that.ConclusionDave: The tradwife idea isn’t necessarily unbiblical—but it must be measured by Scripture, not nostalgia or culture wars. God’s design is rooted in complementarity, love, and service. That’s where our focus must be.Thanks for listening to this episode of Anchored in the Word.
