The Exemplary Husband: A Biblical Perspective (Stuart Scott)
A book which shows how a Christian husband who starts with his relationship to God in the areas of reverence, worship, love, humility learns, from these, the foundation for knowing how to love and lead his wife. A powerful and helpful section on “fatal sins” to a husband’s life: anger, anxiety, fear, lust, and how to fight them.
God ordained marriage between a man and a woman for companionship, procreation, and so man would have a suitable helper. However, God says much more in the Bible about husbands loving their wives than He says about wives submitting to their husbands. He created marriage to be a picture of the relationship between Christ and the Church. Christ was willing to sacrifice His life for the Church, and God expects no less from husbands today.
The overall purpose of The Exemplary Husband is to assist husbands toward purposeful and lasting Christ-likeness for the glory of God. It was written to be a companion book for The Excellent Wife by Martha Peace. Couples who commit to the biblical principles presented in these books will find a oneness in marriage that will give God glory and bring His blessing.

Building a Godly Home, Vol 2: A Holy Vision for a Happy Marriage (William Gouge)
For years, William Gouge’s Domestical Duties has stood as the foremost Puritan treatment of Christian family life. Yet due to its size and antiquated expression, it has become almost unknown among current generations of believers. To help revive the usefulness of this classic book, Scott Brown and Joel R. Beeke have divided Gouge’s work into three manageable volumes, updated the language to modern standards, and have given them the title Building a Godly Home.
In this second volume, A Holy Vision for a Happy Marriage, we find detailed counsel about the most important relationship in the family—husband and wife. Gouge carefully addresses what a fit marriage is and the proper way to enter into one. He then discusses the mutual duties married couples share in order for marriage to survive and thrive, as well as the duties specific to men and women respectively.
Not only does he give detailed treatment of how these responsibilities are best expressed and too often hindered, but he also provides ample biblical motivation to set us on the right course. Christian husbands and wives will find much encouragement in this book.
