Oh Yeah? Well, Why Don’t You Marry It?

Last night Lissie and I were out having sushi and, as always, she ordered a bowl of miso soup.  It’s her favorite, her nectar of the gods, if you will.  She turns to me and she says, “I love it.”  We both looked at each other for a moment, each knowing what [...]

I Love My Wife

It’s true.  Just in case you hadn’t noticed, I am in love with my wife.

She is smart, funny, and has a strength of spirit about her that usually only comes to those who have endured long term suffering (and no, I’m not talking about living with me).  Plus, she’s a total babe who still wears [...]

A Good Husband: The Book

Some of you know that I have been in talks with a publishing company to write a book. Yeah! I’m excited!
I’d like some input from all of you. In fact, I’d like more than your input. I’d like your involvement.

Why I Didn’t Write a Father’s Day Post

At church on Father’s Day there were three beautiful stories shared about three great fathers.
One father shared his thoughts about his son who is currently hundreds of miles away doing missionary work. He talked about how proud he is of the growth that his son is going through.

What Do You Contribute?

What good do you do?
Ever stop and ask yourself this question? As a man and a husband, I sometimes wonder if I’m doing any good, or am I just spinning my wheels?
Does what I do matter?
Sure I help people sell things, I write about being a better man and a better husband, but [...]

Overcoming Fear of Success in Marriage

What do you do when you have achieved your dreams?

What do you do when you have reached, or can see in the immediate future, the fulfillment of your monetary and emotional dreams?

I married the girl of my dreams, my high school sweetheart. We had a rough couple of years, but [...]

Fox’s Bad Dads

Fox Television recently announced a new reality show called “Bad Dads.” The show is about collection agencies going after men who are delinquent on their child support payments. There’s been a flurry of protests against this show. Male issues leader Glenn Sacks has been one of the leaders of the protests. [...]

The Things of My Soul

One of my inspirations for starting A Good Husband was the verse from the Book of Mormon that Nephi, a prophet who lived around 600 BC, wrote about why he wrote down the scriptures that he wrote.

15 And upon athese I bwrite the things of my soul…16 Behold, my asoul delighteth in the things of [...]

Don’t Give Up On Your Marriage Before You’ve Tried

I was watching So You Think You Can Dance last night. I’m a big fan of the show. My favorite from the last three weeks of auditions, Robert Muraine, just quit. I’m totally shocked. Before you read any further, you need to have an understanding of this man’s level of talent.

He’s [...]
