This guy is pretty entertaining. So guys if you want some entertaining tips on what not to say to your wife, click here. Ladies, if your man has said one of these, ouch!
On a more serious note, I was working on a Bible study this week and one of the subjects that comes up in the 1 Cor. 11text is the relationship between men and women, especially husband and wife. It’s that sticky stuff about “headship”. I won’t get into the whole thing, though that might make an interesting series at some point. But as I watched this video, it made me think to this subject.
Christian men need to take up the gauntlet and hold themselves to a higher standard. Headship is a higher standard. It’s not about running the show or dictating, or saying ridiculous, thoughtless things like in this video. Headship as the Bible talks about it is servant leadership. It’s loving your wife and the women in your life as Christ loves his people. It’s putting their needs before yours. It’s about responsiblity. It’s about compassion and care. Not what we typically think of when we talk about this fiery debate, but that’s what the Bible is calling us to.
