Loving God begins with getting your marriage right. The most obvious context to observe "christian living" should be in a christian marriage! No wonder the world is confused about the truth of scripture!
Peter is giving some clear instruction both to husbands and wives in this chapter. Instructions that desperately need to be followed. Both husbands and wives should submit to God and make much of their marriage. As marriages go, so goes the family. As the family goes, so goes the community. My prayer is that our church will be a witness in this community because of our great and healthy marriages.
Honor marriage by loving your spouse today. If you are not married, honor marriage in some way. Whatever is honored in a society will be cultivated there.
