Question
How does a man preside “over his own household in a fine manner”?If you are a husband and want to qualify as an elder, the reputation of your family will affect your qualifications. Thus, you need to be “presiding over [your] own household in a fine manner.” You need to have a reputation for being a loving and responsible family head. This includes taking the lead in all aspects of our worship. Why is this so important? The apostle Paul reasoned: “If any man does not know how to preside over his own household, how will he care for the congregation of God?”—1 Tim. 3:5.
