Best of 2022: Encouraging Your Husband to Be a Hero - Dr. Juli Slattery

[@mchristr]

This is absolute gold! Just as a wife becomes lovelier as her husband loves her well, so a man becomes more respectable as his wife honors him with respect.

[@sgttim8617]

VERY- PROFOUND !

[@doll.ov.poetrii4682]

Very true

[@tulikakundu8774]

Respect is not a feeling, but a choice. Wow! What an eye opener ❤

[@monicahicks4337]

Ephesians 5:21&22 submit means "to support, lift up". Verse 33 respect literally means "put to flight". Obey in Colossians 3:20 means "really listen". Per Lexicon. Wonderful counsel in marriage. Inspiring!

I like how Jim makes sure both sides are represented in the conversation with his questions.

Focus on the family is a blessing to me. Just the words I needed. Thank you!

I’m a HUGE flower girl but I do not want cut flowers at all!!! I am a living plant woman, green leaves, rooted in dirt, and if they do produce flowers then all the better!! I’m in love with fresh flowers in spring till autumn, and the Christmas cactus’s blooming in the winter season. 😊

[@mlumtetwa9966]

This lady is a blessing ❤

[@jenniferraleigh3500]

Thank you for this🙏🏿I love my hubby but I need to do better with showing him

[@jenniferboyd2200]

Very balanced and helpful. I shared this in our family chat with my kids and their future (for some of them) spouses. Hubby and I have learned so much over the last 25 years! Esp as a non traditional couple (he is more sanguine friendly and I am a Driven organized melancholy . We should write a book! Lol.

[@tulikakundu8774]

Just honor the Lord. No need to fix my marriage, not need to fix my children. These are the fruits. I am going to fix my eyes on the roots.

There is so much content, golden nuggets, revelation here. The students are really drawing out of the teacher.

[@linak7155]

The 'empowerment of women' I have mixed feelings about that phrase. It is like a two edged sword. It has connotations to women Libbers. We need the proper Biblical definitions n not borrow perspectives from the world. Abba Father wants women to be treated well, rightly. Our daughters need to be protected. Women need to feel safe n allowed the room to grow / create / accomplish.I best wait n listen in.

[@octizhm]

I am not sure if you and I are in the same opinion but? I concur that women’s empowerment is a two edged sword

Yeah. That has become a dangerous bloodshed

[@rebeccaoprea9917]

Faith not tested is no faith at all . Same applies to relationships. Struggles test your allegiance .

[@sgttim8617]

I haven't listened to this, but I do wish my wife would !

[@Song-Girl-Still-Singing]

You should listen. Wonderful insights for both men and women. I hope your wife will listen too.

YES We need another HERO YES we need to know the way home All we want is life beyond O Help us now to find the way home🎶🎵🎼

[@deborahedlen856]

The word submission conjures up misuse of the scripture. "Submit one to another". Husbands and wives are to submit one to another. It is clear in the scripture and yet completely ignored by those in "leadership" roles. Jesus submitted completely. He laid his life down. Nothing frustrates women more than when the scripture is cut and pasted and lacking context. That is why churches have lost so many.

[@mchristr]

To continue on through Ephesians 5:22-24, how should those passages be understood? Everyone (both men and women) lives under some type of authority. The question is whether--or not--a husband will lovingly lead his wife. I don't know any women who wouldn't "submit" to the leadership of a man who truly loved her and put her needs above his. Blessings.

[@jillcooper6740]

I agree with you. I have never ever seen any man follow through with loving his wife as Christ loved the church either. They all say it. But never ever have I ever seen a human Christian man completely give up himself for his wife. Sure, there might be men who do nice things for their wives once in awhile, but men are pretty self centered. They always expect reciprocal treatmemt. Never have I known a single man who puts himself dead last every single time.

[@deborahedlen856]

@@jillcooper6740 that is so frustrating. If we're to agree with that whole ideology, where women submit to a husband who is laying his life down, women end up losing their voice trying to practice this formula and men simply fail to live up to their end. And then the woman is told to submit better so he can hopefully keep his end. It can't work that way and it's not scriptural. "Submit one to another".... is what it says.

Is the other host shadowing?

[@mariapaletta8025]

I have a question. My brother in law and sister in law planned a surprise birthday party for my husband plus a surprise trip with his brother and his father for a weekend trip to Texas. I thought they should have at least run this idea and date that he would be away with me, his wife. They don't feel the need to tell me the plans they make with and for my daughters or husband. What is Focus on the Family's thought on this?. Am I wrong for wanting to be told first before they make plans with my family? I feel disrespected.

[@focusonthefamily]

We appreciate you reaching out to us with your question, Maria. Please call us at 800-232-6459 and ask to speak with one of our counselors. They'd be happy to call you back as soon as they're able to discuss this with you. We hope to hear from you soon.

I kind of wish Mr Daly would talk less and allow the guest to continue their conversation.

[@se3375]

Respect: 1-Accepting our husband just as he is and allowing for the Lord to do His work in our husband’s life through Jesus and through the power of His Holy Spirit. 2-Admiring our husband for his manly qualities 3-Appreciating him for all that he does. These add up to the how to respect our husbands. Always praying for them and interceding for our husbands as one that we are. 🤍✨
