Husbands Direct Righteous Living in the Home
Mormon Doctrine / Teachings

? ?Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it? (Eph. 5:25). With that kind of love, brethren, we will be better husbands and fathers, more loving and spiritual leaders. Happiness at home is most likely to be achieved when practices there are founded upon the teachings of Jesus Christ (see Ensign, Nov. 1995, 102). Ours is the responsibility to ensure that we have family prayer, scripture study, and family home evening. Ours is the responsibility to prepare our children to receive the ordinances of salvation and exaltation and the blessings promised to tithe payers. Ours is the privilege to bestow priesthood blessings of healing, comfort, and direction.?

Russell M. Nelson, ?Our Sacred Duty to Honor Women,? Ensign, May 1999, 39-40
