“A wife of noble character is her husband’s crown, but a wife who causes shame is like rottenness in his bones.” (Proverbs 12:4, CSB) What I love about this is that if the husband is the head of the house, then the wife is the crown, if they are both in a good place.

"The Bible isn’t a collection of inspirational quotes you can grab when one of them happens to line up with what you already want to do (as I said, even Christians fall into this trap). It’s a unified text with context, history, and a through-line that demands something of the reader."

Thanks, man. 🙏
Good read. This piece pushes men toward a higher, heavier, more biblical standard—not away from one. That’s hard to argue with.
Thanks, Wendy. :)
