1 Peter delves into a topic that's often met with discomfort: the role of women in submission in the marriage relationship:

• The wife's comfort is not more important than her husband's spiritual health.
• Peter is usually misunderstood, with some people taking this passage to mean that women should never speak up or wear jewelry. However, Peter is actually saying that a gentle and quiet spirit is what makes a woman beautiful in God's sight, not jewelry, hair, makeup, or anything else.
• Sarah, the prime example for married women, was known for her faith and obedience to her husband Abraham, even when he was unkind to her. 
• 1 Peter 3 is not about women being weak or staying in the kitchen, but about emulating God's love and respect in their relationships.
• By showing respect, trusting in God, and having gentle and quiet speech, women can spread the love of Jesus to their husbands and become more like Jesus.
