There is an excellent book on this subject called: Strengthening Your Marriage. It is written in outline form as a biblical study and gives Scripture verses for each point made. It was written by Wayne Mack and is published by P&R Publishing (Presbyterian and Reformed Publishing Co). <P>Topics/chapters include God's Purpose for Marriage, Wife's Responsibilities, Husband's Responsibilities, Good Communication, Financial Agreement, Raising Children...<P>You can get it on Amazon and a few other sites as well.<BR>

Got the name of the Book! It's "Rocking the Roles" by Lewis and Hendrix. Excellent, excellent book. My pastor uses this book in his premarital counseling.

Thanks, SueB, I just ordered it.<P>We have talked ad nauseum about how our misconceptions (Ozzie/Harriet) about submission led us into soooooo much trouble.<P>(I suffer in silence, he thinks I've become a doormat, wonders what happened to the "spunky chick" he married. Has an A with the "Spunky chick" he works with....)<P>arggggh.<P>Still waiting to find out what OW does now that she's been 'outed' at the old office...please PRAY that she leaves town. My h. suggested that she try for a new start in another place by asking her h. where would be best for him to live now, since her h. travels.<P>She says she won't give up "what I've achieved here in ###########." H. points out that her rep. is in the toilet...<P>please pray that she will leave for good.<P>pogp

God, may she leave for good and never, ever, ever be seen or heard from again. Give Lizzie the freedom from worry and concern that she can get from this op getting a new life. Thank you Lord that you understand our needs and You take care of the specifics as we are Your children, unique and precious to You.
