Justin Taylor does us all a great service in sharing this piece about Roberston McAuikin. The Vision of God for Husbands is shared by Paul in Ephesians 5:22-33. Men we are called upon by God to put our wives before ourselves, just as Christ put the Church before Himself.

Notice at the end of the tape, Robertson describes his sacrifice as not a duty but a privilege!
In 1990 Robertson McQuilkin resigned his post as president of Columbia Bible College and Graduate School, in order to care for his beloved wife Muriel, who stopped recognizing him in 1993 and went to be with the Lord in 2003 at the age of 81. Someone had a tape recorder at his resignation speech, and you can watch a portion of it below. May God make us men like this:
