Today, a wife's role within the family is a much debated issue with many contrary views and opinions. One view declares that being a wife in the traditional and biblical sense degrades a woman to an inferior position, while others believe that a wife's role is equal to her husband in every way, a position of great worth and value. Who is right? What should the role of a wife be and how can she practically fulfill this role? Have you ever wondered what God's design is for you in your marriage, and how God wants you to fulfill your calling in a manner that pleases Him?

These are some of the questions that must be answered by a Christian woman if she is to understand and fulfill her essential role within marriage. Therefore, let's look at what the Bible declares about these issues and see what God has called you to be.
