"‘Drunkenness is one of the most debasing of sins – it lowers the whole tone of the person who is held in bondage by it. We sometimes talk of a man being “as drunk as a beast,” but whoever heard of a beast being drunk? Why, it is more beastly than anything a beast ever does! I do not believe that the devil himself is ever guilty of anything like that. I never heard even him charged with being drunk! It is a sin which has no sort of excuse – those who fall into it generally fall into other deadly vices. It is the devil’s backdoor to Hell and everything that is hellish, for he that once gives away his brains to drink is ready to be caught by Satan for anything."

— Charles Spurgeon

"‭Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise."

— Proverbs 20:1 (KJV)

“A husband should have a sense of benevolent responsibility to lead, to protect, and to provide for his wife. Husbands should feel a special responsibility to lead the family in a pattern of prayer and Bible reading and worship.”

—John Piper

"Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way, showing honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they are heirs with you of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered."

— 1 Peter 3: 7 (ESV)
