Husbands, Love Your Wives More Than Seminary (Ministry)

Don't tell me you love God and you neglect your wife or are cruel to her. God is your Father in-law and He CARES about how you treat His daughter!

Remember that marriage is Gospel ministry. If you do not hold your marriage in high esteem (Heb 13:4), you do not truly hold Gospel ministry in high esteem. The size of your library is a poor indicator of how seriously you take the Gospel. Your marriage is where the audit needs to happen. I think this is what Paul is getting at when he asks, “For if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how will he care for God’s church” (1 Tim 3:5)?
