When Your Wife Is Spiritually Ahead + When Your Child Has the Wrong Friends | Q&A

What happens when a wife is spiritually ahead of her husband? How can a husband begin leading his family when he still feels like he’s figuring out his own faith?

In this episode of the House of Roberts Podcast, we answer two questions from our audience.

First, we talk honestly about spiritual leadership in marriage: why some husbands hesitate to lead, the simple ways a husband can begin, and how a wife can encourage him without comparing, criticizing, or trying to force the process.

Then we get into a parenting question every family eventually faces: What should you do when another child begins negatively influencing yours? We talk about believing the best, helping children work through conflict, knowing when to involve the other parents, and recognizing when protecting your child may require changing a friendship.

In this episode:

• Why spiritual authority begins with submission to God
• The simplest way a husband can begin leading
• Why a husband doesn’t need to be 50 steps ahead
• How wives can create room for their husbands to grow
• When to step into your child’s friendship problems
• Why we don’t immediately “go nuclear”
• Choosing the stewardship of your children over protecting every friendship

If this episode encouraged you, send it to a husband, wife, or parent who needs it.
