The pastor of an SBC megachurch is being criticized for what is being labeled his “advice to women.” Pastor Josh Howerton of Lakepointe Church in Rockwall, Texas, gave a sermon in February where he recalled a “golden nugget of advice” he’d received about how Christian couples should celebrate their wedding day. He noted that women have often been planning their wedding days their entire lives and that it was the man’s duty to “stand where she tells you to stand, wear what she tells to you to wear and do what she tells you to do.” He followed it up by telling the women in the audience that the man has been planning the wedding night his whole life so that she should “just stand where he tells you to stand, wear what he tells you to wear and do what he tells you to do.”
