By the same token, the man was not created because the woman needed him; the woman was created because the man needed her. For this reason she should have authority over the head because of the angels. So then, I have to insist that in the Lord, neither is woman inferior to man nor is man inferior to woman. For just as woman was taken from the side of man, in the same way man is taken from the womb of woman. God, as the source of all things, designed it this way.

If you are a husband or father, then you are in a war—because war has been declared on the biblical family. Today, leading a family through the chaos of American culture is like leading a small patrol through enemy-occupied territory. But Jesus is not asking you to die for your family; He’s asking you to live for them.
Our view of God is initially formed in our family of origin. Unfortunately, this means that many of us reach adulthood believing things about God that aren’t true—and we often don’t even realize it. In these devotions, Pastor Bryan Clark helps us begin to discover our misbeliefs so that we can draw closer to God our Father.
