Help! Someone is attacking and slandering me unfairly. What should I do? Listen to this lesson to learn how the Apostle Paul says we should handle unjust social opposition and rejection. Find out several ways Paul boldly refuted the false charges against him and what his goal for his congregation was. See how he explained his motivation and past conduct without anger or bitterness in genuine humility and with love.

Like relationships within the Godhead, the divine institution of marriage is defined through roles, with equality in person and distinctness in role. Authority and submission are foundational. Without authority we are left on our own, doomed to failure in our relationship with God and every relationship that flows from that pattern. If the idea of submission makes you want to fight for control, look carefully at the submission of our Savior. Successful marriages function through roles God has prescribed. Circumstances, feelings and cultural trends don’t alter Truth. See the effective analogy of dance and marriage; success in marriage is a function of the correct application of authority and submission carried out within marriage’s unique framework of intimacy, love and respect.
