Family roles. This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

The mere mention of “roles” for husbands, wives, and children can cause hair to bristle.

And yet the rejecting of God-designed roles within the family is a major factor of why we are where we are as a society.

Husbands don’t exercise headship. Wives usurp authority. Children rebel against parents. And the inexorable result is that marriages and families descend into dysfunction.

God designed the best way. The Bible says, “Wives, be subject to your husbands … Husbands, love your wives … Children, be obedient to your parents.”

When we trust and obey God and His Word, blessing and fulfillment are ours.
