My wife went to our old church yesterday so that our daughter can have some contact with other children. Plus she promised the pastor's wife that she would bring our daughter as she hadn't seen her in a few weeks.
When she got home yesterday I asked if the pastor was still preaching the series on stewardship, she said no and went on to explain that he was preaching mainly to unbelievers in church this morning, but also on authority and structure of authority. She said that during the whole service what stuck out to her and what she kept hearing is what was a surprise yesterday.
She let me know that was stuck out to her and what she kept hearing was that she needs to follow me. That as long as I am not doing anything that goes against God, that she needs to follow me. So if I am going to a Lutheran church, she should be coming with me as well because spouses are supposed to be going to the same church. The whole family is supposed to be going to the same church.
She went up to talk to the pastor after service was finished and she let him know that I really like going to a Lutheran church and that what she kept hearing is that she needs to follow me. The pastor let her know that what she said is great news, that he was happy to hear it and that he would expect nothing less and she is doing what she should be doing when she follows me.
One of the other things she mentioned that the pastor said was that, and she is applying this to her, that spouses should show a greater amount of attention to the things that the other spouse likes. So she let me know that she is going to try and like the things that I do.
