Minding your relationships with opposite sex. Your old friends, wives friends, wives family, etc. How close is too close.

I want my husband to understand how important is for his life and for his family his fellowship with God. He is a Christian but he doesnt read his bible or pray but just during the meal time and when we go to church. And that may be the reason of which he cant live the music of the world. I will like the book talks about how important is the fellowship with the Lord

Men have no problem spending money on ANYTHING while trying to win a girl but when they get married, they don’t want to give her money- even when they have LOTS of it to go around. This makes the wife feel unworthy or stupid (like he doesn’t trust her to spend it right). This is especially hard for the stay-at-homer because she doesn’t have many options of making money herself. That’s my input I think men might stay away from this book if they know they’re going to be rebuked every chapter LOL. Women can take it better I think.

@Lorraine. I’m so sorry your husband beats you over the head with Created. Michael has a sermon called “Only Men” that might be helpful. Hopefully he is open to it.

I’ve been married for almsot 6 years. I miss feeling special and the romance. For me, I would love to hear my husband say I look pretty, give me a long kiss/hug, surprise me with a loving note/small gift about how I am special to him and that he is thinking about me, that he is glad to be with me and that he made the right choice to marry me, that I am doing well keeping the home and raising the children—that I am doing well in my job. Certainly these are not a necessity, but a powerful encouragement to submit wholeheartedly and with a glad heart.

My parents both came to the Lord as adults, and consequently had to grow a lot in their marriage. Praise God, they have matured tremendously and my dad is one of the most godly men I have ever known.

Two things I would like to mention; my father adores my mother, and shows it unashamedly. This is perhaps the most important aspect of our home, giving us his children a security nothing else could provide.

Second, nothing affects the home atmosphere like Dad’s mood. If he is anxious, gloomy, distressed, or angry, the whole house is tense. Conversely, when he is cheerful the house is a vale of sunshine.

Your book need to contain the same type of information that “help meet” does.
My husband, has read
“help meet” and is in
the process of using
it to “put me down” and criticize me for
my shortcomings.
(I know this is his only reason for reading it to begin
with). I was happy to hear that you are
writing a book. It
should be about a man’s role as husband, father and
provider, priest, etc.
All Bible texts concerning husbands should be
thoroughly explored and examined, as in
“help meet”. When do you hope to have
this book in print?
Can’t be too soon
for me.

I listened to the CD Created to be His Help Meet and cried before the Lord asking Him to come alongside and help me in areas that I need His touch to change. I was happy to learn about the Book for Men and I know that it will be a blessing to my husband. Neither of us is perfect and Krista’s comment (August 20) reflects a part of my need.

My husband and I both struggle with depression – especially since his unemployment. I’m hoping that the issue of contentment will be addressed, as it was in Debi’s book. I have found it very helpful, but have trouble sharing the insights with him. My husband is not a believer (yet!), but has great respect for your work. This will really be a blessing! Thank you.
