Calling all Patriarchs

Let's face it, and face it now, Christian men. Biblically speaking, men are called to lead, women are called to be submissive and to follow their husbands lead. It's that simple.

Now that we have faced that particular truism, what about this: Men are, since Adam, inclined to kick back and scratch themselves, and women are inclined to do the leading. This comes straight from the Garden of Eden, and has continued pretty much since that time, regardless of what the feminists want us to believe.

However, this is not the way it was intended to be, and many men are waking up, taking back their proper place in the home, and leading their families in a Biblical way. There are many facets to such a responsibility. The one particular aspect we want to explore on this blog is that these fledgling patriarchs need to get a handle on their women!

Well, this blog is dedicated to exploring one of the options a biblical patriarch has when it comes to taking the lead in his family and making sure that things go according to plan. It's called Christian Domestic Discipline, or CDD for short. Most times it conjures images of a good old fashioned spanking, but could involve other things, such as a loss of privileges. I hope that others will find this blog, and share and learn and contribute to a fully Christian understanding of the role of the discipling husband.

Note* Domestic Discipline, as we are discussing it here, involves a man and his wife, who are both willing to submit theirselves to the authority placed over them. Christ over the man, the man over the woman. In no way do we advocate a man striking his wife in anger, or being abusive in any way shape or form.

Actually, there are many Christian women who actively seek a husband who is strong, and willing to take full responsibility for the family, and it sometimes includes the spanking or discipline of the wife. The wife must be willing to submit herself to her husband as the bible says she is. So I hope there are some other people out there who are interested in discussing this topic.
