Have young daughters? Or Granddaughters? Nieces?
If so you may find this podcast from the Mortification of Spin website interesting:

It discusses ways Christian parents can equip their daughters with the necessary tools to honor God and themselves while also being strong women. Too often our culture defines strength in young women as the ability to depend on their own strength and paints the young woman who depends on God as weak or "trapped in a patriarchal system of authority." However, since we are all sinful beings we will betray ourselves and embrace that which hurts us (sin) no matter how much "inner strength" or "confidence" we possess. The team at Mortification of Spin talks about ways fathers and daughters can work together to honor God. Check it out.
