“Wives respect your husband” (Ephesians 5:33) is one of the primary commands for wives. Read or listen to this chapter from Your Marriage God’s Way to learn what it looks like for a wife to respect and disrespect her husband: https://www.scottlapierre.org/wives-respect-your-husband/
"During a counseling session, as I was helping a couple who struggled a lot with fighting, the wife had an epiphany. Most couples enjoy working together, but these two always ended up disagreeing with each other. The husband explained that nothing he did was ever good enough for his wife. She always countered him with a better way to do things, and she picked apart all his decisions. She was genuinely confused about her husband’s frustration because she thought she was simply trying to be helpful. It wasn’t until this session that she realized her husband found her “helpful” suggestions to be disrespectful.
Though a wife might believe she has good intentions in mind, if a husband feels she is being disrespectful, that creates a big problem for two reasons. First, a husband craves his wife’s respect. Second, Scripture not only commands that a wife submit to her husband, it urges her to respect him as well."

Sunday's sermon turned into a blog post with audio and video:
https://www.scottlapierre.org/naamans-pride/
Naaman’s pride nearly cost him everything – don’t let it happen to you! In 2 Kings 5:1–14, we witness a powerful story of how Naaman’s pride nearly prevented him from receiving God’s healing and salvation. We, too, can be blinded by our own expectations. The story of Naaman’s pride is a warning for all of us: don’t let ego or expectations block the work God wants to do in your life. Recognize the signs of pride and discover how obedience and humility lead to transformation.

“Staying true to the approachable and encouraging style of the original book, this workbook is written in a clear and engaging style that not only challenges readers to pursue growth but is also truly encouraging and uplifting. Over three months, readers are invited to become more deeply rooted in Christ, with LaPierre artfully drawing on the metaphor of a believer as a tree, whose strength and stability come from its root system grounded in Christ." #beingcontentgodsway
