I got a question for you. Yes, yes ma'am. How can we be lovers if we can't be friends?

Let me say this. Michael Golden has a question for you. Yeah, you know that's a good question because we had a

conversation a while back where you were saying you know you said something

about how husband and wife should be friends.

Yes.

And I said to you, yes, but calling you a friend is a demotion.

Well, best, we talked about best friend.

You were like, you're my best friend, but that kind of feels like what you said a demotion from from the

station of wife wife yeah and so we've had and you're giving a talk in the next in the coming

weeks yeah to a group of ladies and it's all

about friendship in the marriage yes and so how should a husband view his wife in terms

of their friendship and vice versa the the wife you and her husband.

It's a conversation worth having and thinking seriously about because while friendship is important,

I think we do want to say that. Friendship and marriage is important.

Absolutely.

It's important.

But it is a demotion from the station and the title, if you will, of husband

or wife, given what the covenant boundaries are and what the depth of what covenant can be.

So today we're just going to look at friendship and marriage its roles its functions and how to

submit it rightly and cultivate it so we'll see you in the session. Already feeling warm in here. Just kidding.

I've got to put the hair up. Now officially it's May which means it starts to heat up a little bit in these parts.

Chances are doesn't heat up a little bit in these parts
