EP 38: What Does Submission in Marriage Look Like? {Marriage Series}

by Marci Ferrell
Communication in Marriage Loving Our Husbands Marriage Marriage Series Podcast

When we are living out the beautiful doctrine of submission the unbelieving world around us will take notice. @mferrell

  We are continuing in our marriage series on the podcast, and this is the second half of the episode on submission. If you didn't get a chance to listen to the first one where my husband joined us you can do that here. I highly recommend it before listening in to this one. My husband shared last week on the theology of submission, and I'm continuing on today on what submission in marriage is and what it isn't.

Submission as an Act of Worship

by Marci Ferrell
Christian Living Communication in Marriage Marriage Marriage Series Submission

Submission is a sweet, undeserved gift we can give to our husbands because we have a great love and trust for the Lord.  #submission @mferrell

  Would you think of your submission to your husband as an act of worship to the Lord? To be perfectly honest it's not the first thing that comes to my mind. When I'm reminded that my submission to my husband is to be voluntary and is not dependent on his behavior, then I can see how it is an act of worship and obedience to the Lord in his calling for me as a wife. 22 Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the ... continue reading...


EP 37: What is Biblical Submission? {Marriage Series with Guest Doug Ferrell}

by Marci Ferrell
Christian Living Communication in Marriage Marriage Marriage Series Podcast Submission

If I could just cut to the chase, here is the true heart of what submission is all about…it is about humility. It is being unselfish, having no pride, no self-importance; “but with humility of mind, considering others” and in this case the other being your husband, “considering your husband as more important than yourselves @mferrell

  We're continuing in our marriage series, and podcast episode 37 is part one of a two-part episode in the series on submission. I'm a bit excited to have my husband joining us today, and he's going to work through with us what is the theology of submission.

Podcast Ep 36: Showing Respect to Our Husbands {Marriage Series}

by Marci Ferrell
Marriage Marriage Series Podcast Respect Submission

Christ is our ultimate example of a loving, respectful servant. @mferrell

  We’re continuing in our series on marriage at the podcast, and episode 36 is on respect.  So far we've covered God's Design for Marriage and Our Role as Women, Loving Our Husbands, and today we're talking about what does it look like to show respect to our husbands. What is respect? How is it defined? The dictionary defines it - A feeling of deep admiration for someone or something elicited by their abilities, qualities, or achievements. We are called by God to respect ... continue reading...


How Well Do You Respect Your Husband? A Self-Assessment

by Marci Ferrell
Marriage Marriage Series Respect

  How well do you respect your husband? Sometimes we can be blind and think we're doing a pretty good job when truthfully we're not even coming anywhere near being respectful to our husbands. If you haven't picked up your Excellent Wife book in a bit (or if you don't have it yet - stop and go get it here now) dust it off and take a moment to re-read it and at least today read chapter 10 on respect. Did you know that God didn't call you to change your husband?  He did call you ... continue reading...
