| 0:19.3 | There are hundreds of battles right out there in the world that are being waged right now |
| 0:26.9 | in the field of conflicting ideas regarding husbands and wives and homes. There are myriads of views and philosophies that are |
| 0:44.5 | bombarding us in the media and they all are struggling to capture our attention. They all are |
| 0:53.4 | struggling to gain our attention. They all are struggling to gain our allegiance. And I believe that in a time like this, |
| 1:01.5 | that we are to go to the most assuring place, we are to go to the source of comfort for answers. That is the infallible, inspired, |
| 1:18.6 | inherent word of God. Now, I'm fully aware that there are some, perhaps many, in the mainline churches today, who would see |

| 2:48.0 | But before I do this, I want to say two things, by way of |
| 2:53.8 | explanation. I'm going to single out the men today, and I'm going to speak about the role of |
| 3:00.8 | the husband. Women go to seminars, read books. Did you know that 85% of all the Christian books are bought by women? |
| 3:10.7 | This is absolute statistics. Men don't read books, don't buy them. 15%. Very few people speak to husbands. |
| 3:19.9 | Very few people speak to men, let alone husbands always reminding their wives of Ephesians 5, that |
