The stress from living in an unbelieving world has a way of bringing out the worse in a person so in 1 Peter, chapter three verses 8-9, Peter encourages believers in the local church not to bite and devour one another because of the stress they were under. And since stress also has a way of seeping into the home and affecting the marriage relationship Peter writes to address those who were married and give them some bricks…not to throw at each other, but to build a solid structure or foundation for the marriage and the family to rest upon…a firm foundation that would withstand the turbulent winds of problems related to miscommunication, money, mothers-in-law, children and sex.
