Who is obligated to cook in a marriage?

Once a couple gets married, the question pops up, who’s supposed to cook? What’s interesting about this question is often times is not communicated; it’s assumed the woman’s duty. Yet, where does that assumption come from, and is it biblically based? Is the wife obligated to cook for her husband?

When approaching this topic it’s important to separate cultural traditions from biblical mandates.

In marriage the husband and wife are a team. The health of the family is the responsibility of both spouses. In this podcast episode we take a hard look at what God says about the role of cooking, and the importance of communication rather than assumptions. We also discuss the feminist movement frowning upon, and demonizing women who gladly cook for their husbands. Please leave your comments, subscribe and share with friends.
