Abstract

This article discusses the Christian movement called quiverfull, which encourages unrestricted births and trains wives to be submissive. It was originally based on the book "A Full Quiver: Family Planning and the Lordship of Christ," by Rick and Jan Hess. The author claims that quiverfull parents attempt to have at least six children and homeschool their families.
