This study focuses on families and marriages built on the foundation of Jesus Christ, which stands in spite of outside pressure. It objectively presents two divergent perspectives on Christian marriage: the traditional perspective--the 'hierarchical' model--and the 'equalitarian' model. Are wives to be submissive? Or should there be mutual submission under God for both man and woman? The text lends itself to both interpretations and both are explained. 13 studies for individuals or groups.
