Scripture can be a bit vague as to how we are to treat those of the opposite sex. Couple that with our desire to push the limits, not wanting to hurt someone’s feelings, or society’s passion for attention and ever changing view on sex outside of marriage, and we can find ourselves in some pretty muddy water.

What was once thought of as outrageous or scandalous behavior with someone of the opposite sex, is now not only commonplace, but often encouraged.

But as Christian woman and wives, where do we draw the line? What conduct or behavior is acceptable to God and how do we keep ourselves or our husbands from falling into the slippery slope of an affair?

Today we will look at God’s Word to bring us some clarity on what the expectation is in this, as well as some necessary boundaries to set in place to protect ourselves and our marriages.

Let’s get started.

Hi girls, Today we're covering a topic that a member of our FB community has asked about and one that each of us will most likely face at one time or another in our marriages.

As submissive respectful wives, what do we do when our husband sins or is allowing a stumbling block in his life that can lead him down a destructive path? Hurting both himself and our family.

In this espisode we will look at what the Bible says about sin, judging others, the Holy Spirit’s role in this, and biblical reproof. All of which will help us with some practical steps as to what to do when our husband sins or allows stumbling blocks in his life.

Let's get started.

Last week we asked the question, are you suffering in an unhappy marriage? One where your husband is maybe unkind or unloving and you fear that you will be bound in a loveless difficult marriage forever?

We talked about some bad advice that is out there and even though it may seem biblical, it isn’t and will only lead you to more problems.

We also began to look at the hope and peace that we have in Christ. How He is always with us and ultimately in control of everything.

Today, we’re finishing our conversation as we chat about how through our trials, God is not only doing a work in us to strengthen our faith, but that as wives, we are in the unique position to be used for God's glory and purpose in reaching our husbands.

Let’s get started.
