Chuck Swindoll suggests it's not so much what a wife says to her husband that will win him over. He's more apt to respond to her gentle behavior and her attitude.

Let's Consult the Architect
The institution of marriage has fallen on hard times—divorce rates are soaring, men and women are testing the marriage waters by living together first, to say nothing about society’s attempts to redefine marriage to include same-sex couples. But marriage is a divinely designed institution, and if marriage is to thrive in an increasingly hostile culture then we must first consult the architect of marriage…God.
When the Bible is Offensive
What do I do when the Bible offends me? Here are a few tips that may be helpful.
Confusion
One of the toughest assignments in life is to communicate clearly what happened during a time when emotions were high.
Help Me Understand: Depression
We are imperfect people living among other imperfect people in an imperfect world. That has numerous effects.
Look Who's Turning 50
This longing to be with Jesus doesn't mean I do silly things to get there faster or that I'm content to leave the world as it is. But hope bubbles to the surface more quickly than it did even a year ago.
Gleaning Wisdom
Whenever I read Proverbs I desire to become a wiser person. But how? A quick Google search reveals I'm not the only one wondering. Although obtaining wisdom is an ancient goal, it is no less important today.
When Faith is Dangerous
The reality is, true biblical faith is based on knowledge of God and His Word. You can't believe in the promises of God if you don't know what they are or trust a God whom you know little about.
Liberty on a Tightrope
God’s desire is that we, His people, fully enjoy our freedom in Christ. However, there must be self-imposed boundaries or we will become self-serving, independent-minded, and careless rebels with no regard for others. The last 11 verses of Romans 14 address this issue.
Putting Grace into Action
Because of the weak believer’s human tendency to judge those who don’t embrace his or her customs and convictions and also because of the strong believer’s decision to discount judgments passed by those who find fault in his or her expressions of freedom, conflict emerges and persists. The solution? Put grace into action.
