#197 - Joby Martin // Work, Will, and Woman in God's Original Plan


Season 1 Episode 197


God gave Adam three things for dominion: work to enjoy, will to obey, and a woman to love, establishing a blueprint for biblical manhood that remains relevant today.

• Genesis 2:18 presents the first "not good" in Scripture - man being alone
• God created woman as a helper (azer) equal in value but fulfilling a complementary role
• Adam named all animals, getting his world in order before receiving Eve
• Single men should practice loving relationships with mothers, sisters, and female friends
• Men need to have their lives in order before being qualified to receive "one of God's daughters"
• Marriage follows God's order: leave parents, cleave to spouse, then become one flesh
• Reversing God's design leads to shame in relationships
• Sex is like fire - beautiful in its proper context (marriage) but destructive outside it
• Men must reject the cultural tendency to commodify women for selfish purposes
• Restoration comes through confession, the blood of Jesus, and commitment to love sacrificially
