Biblical Manhood (Part Five)

The biblical man understands that he’s the foundation of his family. In the Bible, man is presented as the head and spiritual leader of the family, and this is typically understood to be the basis or foundation of the family structure. His foundational role is based on the creation account in Genesis and is outlined in greater detail in the New Testament. As the foundation, he sets the tone in the relationship. While he’s setting the tone, the woman reflects what he gives. If he’s steady, consistent, and intentional, she feels safe, cherished, and deeply connected. But, if he’s distant or careless, she withdraws, questions everything, and struggles to trust. A woman thrives in love, not in uncertainty. When a man leads with unconditional love & stability, he unlocks the most devoted version of her! Be encouraged!
