Hey guys, let me talk to you about helping around the house. One complaint women have had for years is that men don’t help enough around the house. And research validates that even if the wife works out of the home for pay, men still contribute just about a fourth of the domestic homework!

    I wonder why that is? Is it because that kind of work is “beneath us”? Do you think somehow that work around the house is unimportant? Well the wise man in Proverbs says, “The one who is slack in his work is brother to the one who destroys.” And that principle is true in relationships as well as business. These are our homes guys, not just our houses. Let’s work for building these home relationships even if it means picking up and helping out, okay? God bless.
