Dear Reader…
We Bishop Ken and Pastor
Sheila Giles consider ourselves fortunate to know the Lord and be familiar with
His ways (word and will) in our own lives, and in a tremendous sense, to able
to share the Lord and His word with others. Our book, Prayer, Marriage and
the Leadership Roles of the Husband and Wife, gives us the privilege
of lightening the load and burden of others, and helping them alleviate and
eliminate unnecessary problems, and the pain and suffering they bring in life,
marriage and family. In fact, we have been and are able to extend the wisdom of
God's word to usher in and sustain peace, prosperity and blessing in lives,
marriages and families through our book and speaking engagements.
Fundamentally, the wisdom
shared through our book and speaking engagements come from the revelation of
God's word, and is fueled by the burden passion derived from personal
deliverance and victory, and a desire to
see the lives, marriages and families of others blessed.
In a portion of our book
introduction, the following excerpt is communicated:
"Marriage is an institution established by God. God ordains a man and a woman to be husband and wife in order to fulfill His purpose of expanding(multiplying) His likeness (image) and kingdom agenda through their rule
and dominion over His creation (Genesis 1:27- 28).
Within the institution of marriage, the man (husband) is responsible for carrying out and communicating God’s vision (Genesis 2:15-17
and 3:2-3). The woman(wife) enables,
strengthens and encourages her husband to carry out God’s vision for himself, their marriage and family. The husband and wife become one flesh (person). No other human relationship, including that of parents and children, is to have priority or greater importance than that of the husband and wife to one another (Genesis 2:23-24 and Matthew 19:5-6).
The Leadership roles of the husband and wife are paramount to God’s plan of blessings in the marriage, family, generations and broader society. Therefore, obedience to God and His word establishes God’s order and facilitates the proper working and functioning of the marriage
and family. Thus, establishing the peace, joy and increase the Lord has purposed in and through the marriage and family."
The above book excerpt
establishes the Lord's foundation and framework marriage and family and reveals
His desire to bless those who give heed to His word, will and way. Also, this
is premise through which our book relays the details of God's word and the
promises and blessings that are attached.
Our prayer is that many will
hear and apply the biblical truths and principles shared in our book to their
lives, in order that marriages and families are blessed; and, as the
foundational institutions of human society, cause the blessedness of nations
and our world, in the name of Jesus the Christ, amen.

enables, strengthens and encourages her husband to carry out God's vision for
himself, the marriage and family. The husband and wife become one flesh. No
other human relationship, including that of parents and children, is to have
priority or greater importance than that of the husband and wife to one
