Obedience is a tricky word in today's world. Talking about obedience in a marriage relationship? Even harder.

Immediately, images of harsh dictators and timid followers come to mind, and we bristle at the idea. This can take a real toll on our relationship with God because - like it or not, He does have commandments and does call us to obedience. He also desires a covenantal, marriage relationship with us so.. once again, we have to wrestle with this idea of marriage and obedience.

In the DreamWorks movie, How to Train Your Dragon 2, there's a beautiful scene between Stoick, the Viking chief, and his long-lost wife that, I believe, illustrates an excellent model for understanding our relationship with God as it comes to obedience and loyalty.
