📖 Biblical Definition
"Young women" is the category Paul commits to the older women’s care in Titus 2:4-5. The training agenda is explicit and beautifully unfashionable: "that they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, to be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed." The teaching runs woman-to-woman, not from the pulpit, and centers on the domestic vocation God has actually assigned. Where the world disciples young women into career idolatry, sexual revolution, and contempt for the household, the church is to disciple them into glad submission, fruitful motherhood, and joyful covenant home-building under Christ.
