    • One of the best sermons I’ve heard anywhere was here at Fellowship Knoxville yesterday.  https://middlebrook.fellowshipknox.org/live-mb (Sept 19, 2021).  Often we hear sermons on Faith, Hope and Love, but not as often on Honesty, Gentleness, and Honor.  Please Please listen to this sermon if you can. It will do your heart, spirit and soul good.

 Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way, showing honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they are heirs with you of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered.

MOLESKIN:
We should strive in every endeavor (even the small things) to empathize with our wives and seek to honor them so that our prayer life may not be hindered. Always room to improve in this area for all of us
