Rachel and I have been chatting for the past few weeks. She has wanted to tell her story on how she got to this point in her marriage. She sent me this and I honestly need you all to read this. It is so good and important. What a journey!   REVISED/CONDENSED Why I Submit to Discipline from My Husband Article by - Rachel / AKA “Imperfect Wife” Entering into a more traditional husband-and-wife dynamic within our Christian marriage was not an easy journey. Our marriage had been deteriorating for a year. We struggled to communicate, overwhelmed by work, finances, and the trials and extra commitments that come with raising our children. On top of this, I started an ever expanding business which demanded more energy and time than I could commit while keeping up with a busy household.

  Having “The Conversation”: How to Talk About Domestic Discipline With Your Partner Article by Lisa This article has taken me over a year to write. Hundreds of edits.  Next Week I am posting Two Articles A Note to the Man Who Wants to Take Charge A Note to the Woman Who Wants to Follow His Lead Over the years I have been thinking about my sister. She has told me that she desires a domestic discipline relationship. The difficult part is that she got married without ever having that conversation with her husband, and he has no interest in it. I feel for her because I understand why bringing something like this up can feel incredibly vulnerable. It is one thing to have thoughts or desires that you keep privately to yourself. It is something entirely different to look at the person you love and say, “There is something I think might make our marriage better, and I am nervous to tell you about it.” And that is why I keep thinking about “ The Conversation .” If you are considering ...
