The Role of a Husband – Summary

Husbands have a high calling from God. They are the ones that God holds responsible in a marriage. They are the ones that God calls to be the head of the family. He is responsible to God to be the leader without being the lord. It is a relationship defined by love that is conditioned not by her response to him, but by a life-long commitment to honor and understand his wife. The goal is to value his wife, to be satisfied with his wife, as a gift from God, a fellow heir. The husband’s role is not a small one, and not necessarily an easy one, but neither is it an optional one. Failure to be the husband you ought will have ramifications in your relationship with God as well as your wife.
