The Wise Woman's Guide to Blessing Her Husband's Vision (CD) (Vision of Victory for Marriage) [Audiobook] [Audio CD]

Douglas W. Phillips (Author)

Book Description

Series: Vision of Victory for Marriage | Publication Date: October 2003

The Christian community is full of dear ladies discouraged because their husbands lack vision to lead the family with gusto. In some cases, the men are simply overwhelmed with present responsibilities. In other cases, they lack a biblical framework for household leadership. It certainly does not help when men have poor role models in their own lives, which is the case for a growing majority of husbands. Often wives cry out, "Help, my husband just doesn’t get it," or, "I want more children, but my husband says ‘no,’" or even, "My husband is nervous about home schooling." For more than ten years, Doug and Beall Phillips have spoken with hundreds who share these sentiments. But, too often, wives contribute to the problem through a wrong response. The great news is that the Bible anticipates this crisis of leadership in the home and provides crystal clear direction for wives. Wise women will desire to bless their husband’s vision by embracing the specific affirmative and negative biblical commands given to them for this very purpose. Those who do will become a sanctifying influence on their household, grow in spiritual maturity, and become God’s vehicle for their husband’s spiritual revival. This series is meant to encourage both wives and husbands with the principles and the practicalities for men and women growing in family vision for the Lord.

5.0 out of 5 stars A convicting and hopeful view of God's purpose in marriage., June 15, 2005

After three years of marriage, my husband and I (both Christians) had already discussed divorced. I 'accidentally' (in God's providence) stumbled across this CD while perusing Douglas Phillips' website, and I thought it looked like something that would be edifying to me. I cannot accurately put into words the blessing this picture of a biblical marriage has been to me. Phillips does direct some of the lecture to husbands, but the majority of it is teaching us wives how to be godly wives, regardless of our husbands. I was so convicted of my sins, but more than that, my despair has given way to hope of God's working righteousness in me and my husband. Phillips is very discerning in laying out how a husband's lack of vision affects his wife and what sins he contributes to by his failings (not that the husband's sins excuse the wife's). And he is very clear in pointing out how Scripture addresses this situation. I have listened to the CDs twice in the past week since I got the set and have already loaned them out to several friends.

Doug Phillips has a timeless message for women on this set. My entire family listened and I, as Mom, was exhorted and challenged, my children learned what are the godly expectations for a woman in marriage (of which my son especially took note!) and my husband, delighted that we all were listening, was encouraged to move out in areas, knowing that I was in hearty agreement with the premise of whole-heartedly supporting him as he leads us. This is a gift I plan to give every young woman planning for marriage.

4.0 out of 5 stars Relevant. A good resource for engaged and married women., January 22, 2011

Great sermon. This is one of the most life changing sermons I ever heard. It's Biblically based while giving insight from a man's perspective. Offers solutions to issues Christian families face. Warning: lots of 19th century poetry and historical references. Great for those about to be married and already married.
