Summary
Peter instructs wives and husbands in 1 Peter 3:1-7 on Christian marriage roles within God's authority structure. Wives are called to submit to their husbands' leadership and cultivate inner beauty, even winning unbelieving spouses through godly conduct. Husbands must honor their wives as co-heirs in Christ, treating them with understanding and care.
Highlights
Ladies, do not underestimate the power of the second chair. You have the power to even lead your lost husband to Christ, even without words.
Men, the more you fall in love with Jesus, the more she'll fall in love with you.
She's your co-heir. That means that your wife is a princess of the king and guess what? You're not the king. You're a prince, she's a princess. You both are under God and you both are co-heirs.
