Summary

This week, host Jerrad Lopes introduces listeners to Aaron Smith, a husband, father and founder of Husband Revolution, an online marriage ministry. Aaron's goal in ministry is to revive the hearts of husbands and fathers around the world. Listen as Aaron speaks about combating our human tendency to compare ourselves to others, parenting techniques, church community, and other thought-provoking topics. This episode will leave you inspired and encouraged in your role as a husband and father. You'll definitely want to take notes! Host: Jerrad Lopes Guest: Aaron Smith is a husband and father who has always had a passion for sharing the gospel with the world. After getting married in 2007 to Jennifer Smith ( Unveiled Wife ), he and his wife became missionaries in Africa. Throughout the first four and a half years of marriage he and his wife experienced many struggles but found restoration through the grace of God, and out of those trials was birthed an online marriage ministry (HusbandRevolution.com (http://husbandrevolution.com/)). His heart now is directed towards encouraging husbands in their walks with Christ and their marriage. His hope is to see a revival in the hearts of husbands around the world. He believes that if husbands would humble themselves and turn toward God that the message of Christ would be advanced greater than ever before. Scripture References: * Ephesians 5:25-30 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians+5%3A25-30&version=ESV)" Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, 26 that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, 27 so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.[a (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians+5%3A25-30&version=ESV#fen-ESV-29315a)] 28 In the same way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.
