Some wives have wondered why their husband won’t listen to them. And some have resigned to themselves that he never will. Maybe with some understanding there is hope:—A husband tends to use only half of his brain while listening; a wife tends to use both sides of her brain.
—Men tend not to be emotional. They also tend not to talk as much as a woman. So they don’t provide women with the kind of feedback that they desire.
—There is a tendency in some people to resist while listening to others.
—The Bible exhorts husbands to love their wives and dwell with them with understanding. There are also examples of husbands who listened to their wives for their benefit or their own peril.
Using real-life and personal examples, a famous model of communication, and Bible references, popular Internet talk show host S.B. Redd offers a practical approach to improving marriage by encouraging husbands to listen to their wives.
Husbands, Listen to Your Wives (ISBN: 978-0-9845273-2-8, Xpress Yourself Publishing) is the kind of book that wives will love to read and husbands love to hate. But, on June 17, 2010, if a husband dares to read S.B. Redd’s eye opener, he just might learn a trick or two in avoiding the doghouse.
