Finding a Godly Wife - Pastor Patrick Hines Podcast

[1Peter 3:1-21 NASB20] 1 In the same way, you wives, be subject to your own husbands so that even if any [of them] are disobedient to the word, they may be won over without a word by the behavior of their wives, 2 as they observe your pure and respectful behavior. 3 Your adornment must not be [merely] the external--braiding the hair, wearing gold [jewelry,] or putting on apparel; 4 but [it should be] the hidden person of the heart, with the imperishable [quality] of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in the sight of God. 5 For in this way the holy women of former times, who hoped in God, also used to adorn themselves, being subject to their own husbands, 6 just as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord; and you have proved to be her children if you do what is right without being frightened by any fear. 7 You husbands in the same way, live with [your wives] in an understanding way, as with someone weaker, [since she is] a woman; and show her honor as a fellow heir of the grace of life, so that your prayers will not be hindered. 8 To sum up, all [of you] be harmonious, sympathetic, loving, compassionate, [and] humble; 9 not returning evil for evil or insult for insult, but giving a blessing instead; for you were called for the very purpose that you would inherit a blessing. 1
