About this ebook

What does it mean for a husband to love his wife? Three things, says Tony Evans: a husband must act as his wife’s savior, sanctifier, and satisfier. It is by living out these three principles that a godly marriage will blossom and flourish.

In For Married Men Only, each of these principles is explored and explained using real-life examples. How can a husband be his wife’s savior? By learning to love her as Christ loved the church. What about sanctifier? By dying to self and modeling sacrificial love, no matter what the result. And satisfier? By studying and serving his wife so he can fulfill her needs, just as Christ humbled Himself for our sakes.

First published in 2002 as Tony Evans Speaks Out on a Man’s Role in the Home, this booklet has sold nearly 40,000 copies. Use it alone or with the companion volume, For Married Women Only.

Ratings and reviews

Men! Read this book if you want peace and understanding in your marriage. We must step our purpose in marriage up. Me eyes, ears, mind, and heart are open and ready to begin functioning as a Godly husband.

Truly in tears. My heart is overwhelmed as a wife. I just wanted to know what another man was talking about with their marriage. It's my life story as a wife with my husband. I felt like you and I was just talking and you heard me. I don't ask for much just doing what I think marriage is about. Good book

Reading this book made me step my game up to being more of a godly husband!
