Marriage is not a vending machine, and love is not two quarters to put into it. It's a manner of life, not an exchange of commodities. So, what does it look like when a man loves a woman?

Douglas Wilson answers that question in How to Exasperate Your Wife and Other Short Essays for Men, and his responses are as wide-ranging and humorous as they are incisive and down to earth. He explains why men's distorted view of wisdom handicaps their understanding of their wives, and he exposes rigid (and wrong) approaches to marriage and relationships. He gives practical advice for identifying unhappy households ("Mom is ignored") and replacing abdicating dads with true leaders ("Measure strength not in decibels but performance"), all combined with hot tips on how to exasperate your wife (you may start with leopard underwear).

Both realistic and insightful, How to Exasperate Your Wife and Other Short Essays for Men points husbands (and wives) toward a passionate married love that is particular, sacrificial, sacramental, and muy caliente.

This is definitely a book that you read multiple toke before you can fully grasp it. Read it, listen to it, and meditate on it as a supplement to the Bible in your walk as a man.

Since a good sermon should be exegetical, the appropriate place for a topical sermon is in a booklet like this. Good stuff for both men and women to be aware of.
