5 Simple Things that Make Husbands Feel Loved and Respected -- A Crosswalk Post

 


Today I'm a guest-contributor over at Crosswalk.com. 

"The male need for respect and affirmation, especially from his woman, is so hard-wired and so critical that three out of four men would rather feel unloved than disrespected or inadequate.” 

This shocking statement underscores what Shaunti Feldhan, author of For Women Only, discovered when she surveyed more than 1,000 men: If a man feels disrespected, he’s going to feel unloved. If we want to love our husband in the way he needs us to be loved, we must ensure he feels our respect. 

Sadly, modern culture and misguided l feminism have maligned and misrepresented God’s command in Ephesians 5:33 instructing a wife to respect her husband. Wise Christians, however, know that respect can be one of the most powerful forces for good in a marriage. It demonstrates love, honors Christ, and empowers a husband to become all God created him to be. 

If you’d like to unlock the power of respect in your marriage, here are 5 simple things that will make your husband feel loved and respected.







Does Your Faith Need Refreshing?

That's in the Bible? I've never noticed that before!

It's probably been too long since you've newly discovered a story that speaks to your soul or a verse that pops with truth. But that's about to change!



Refresh Your Faith contains 66 culturally relevant, story-driven devotions, one from each book of the Bible. Each real-life story spotlights an unusual verse or Bible passage that you may have overlooked in your usual Bible reading. Lori Hatcher challenges you with additional features like an uncommon thought to ponder; an unusual faith action step; and an unfamiliar passage suggestion for additional Bible reading.

When the fabulous has become familiar and your quiet times are more like nap times, it's time to step out of spiritual boredom and ignite the spark that will keep you growing. No matter where you are on your faith journey, Lori's conversational and engaging style will challenge you to think about things you've never thought about before.

“Real-life inspiration and candid wit. These 5-minute devotions will change your life.” —Psychologist and best-selling author Dr. Kevin Leman, commenting on Lori Hatcher's devotional style
