Aretha Franklin's #1 1967 hit "Respect" was written by a man: Otis Redding in 1965. So the question is, did his view of the meaning of this word agree with hers? In this the first of a two part sermon on marriage Gary Smith covers the subject of respect which is what the Bible says a husband needs the most from his wife.
