1 | why men struggle - being head of house | 2 Timothy | glory777 | 9533 | ||
Unfortuantely, I think it is in large part because of the culture we live in. As we drift away from the Bible and God being the focus, we replace our focus with "me". Women think of submission as being unequal and don't understand the importance of the role as "helpmeet". So their is a striving for control. Men don't take on the role as spiritual head of house and if they heard that they were head of the house, they don't understand the biblical function of the head of house. If both of these roles are understood before marriage, a lot of problems would not crop up. This does not apply to all men and women, understand, but those that do not have solid biblical knowledge of the plan of God for the family. Debbie |

2 | why men struggle - being head of house | 2 Timothy | Hiram Abiff | 9541 | ||
I recently read Maximized Manhood by Dr. Edwin Louis Cole. Wow, what a change in my marriage. Once my wife realized, by reading the book, that I was attempting to become the spiritual head (priest) of our family and not trying to be a dictator she supported the idea in full. The change in our level of communication has been astounding and has led to our nightly Bible study and prayer together. One interesting thing I have noticed is that since I have put myself in this position I have a renewed hunger for understanding of the Word and have felt the need to pray for guidance often as I feel I have taken on a sacred responsibility. | ||||||
