The Husband Christ Calls You to Be

A Christian husband is not defined by culture, pride, personality, or personal preference. He is defined by the Word of God.The Husband Christ Calls You to Be is a Scripture-driven call for men to understand marriage, leadership, love, sacrifice, purity, provision, repentance, service, and faithfulness through the clear teaching of Scripture.This is not a book of shallow marriage tips or sentimental advice. It is a biblical examination of what God commands a husband to be before Christ and within his home.Moving from Genesis through the Epistles, this book traces the husband’s calling from creation, covenant, headship, and self-denial to the commands to love as Christ loved the church, dwell with his wife according to knowledge, give her honor, provide for his household, lead his home toward the Lord, and serve after the pattern of Christ.Each chapter brings the husband before the text of Scripture, exposing the sins men often excuse: harshness, passivity, pride, bitterness, lust, laziness, selfishness, emotional withdrawal, false repentance, spiritual neglect, and leadership without love. But the goal is not condemnation without hope. The same Christ who commands husbands also gives grace to repent, obey, and walk faithfully.Inside, readers will find a biblical call to:Love without selfishnessLead without tyrannyServe without prideSacrifice without resentmentReceive correction without defensivenessProvide without using provision as controlProtect purity and covenant faithfulnessHonor a wife as an heir together of the grace of lifeLead the home toward the Lord with humility and courageA husband is called to more than being present, providing income, or claiming authority. He is called to stand before Christ as a man under command, under grace, and under the Word of God.The Husband Christ Calls You to Be is for husbands, future husbands, pastors, men’s groups, and Christian readers who want a serious biblical study of what Scripture says a husband is called to be.This is a book for men willing to stand before Scripture and ask honestly:What kind of man is Christ calling me to be in my home?
