Marriage

Pastor Daniel Goulding · Jul 4, 2021

Drawing from 1 Peter 3:1-7, Pastor Daniel Goulding argues that when life's external pressures bear down on us, we are tempted to take out our fear and frustration on the people closest to us — especially our spouses. Peter's antidote is meekness: not weakness or passivity, but strength willingly brought under control. Wives are called to honor their husbands through the witness of a holy life, and husbands are called to sacrificially know, understand, and lead their wives in love — both parties mutually submitted to God and to each other.
