Godly Roles for Men and Women

This sermon begins a two sermon series on marriage. In this sermon Mr. Smith shows that Genesis 1-3 show an ordering in the creation and that part of this shows the roles of men and women in the family. He then shows how Adam failed in his role when Satan came to Eve. In the rest of the sermon he shows what the Bible says about the role of husbands in marriage. The second sermon will cover the role of wives.
