Ephesians 5 might be one of the most debated passages in marriage conversations, especially when it comes to submission. But what about the calling placed on husbands?
In this episode of One Degree Marriage, we unpack what it actually means for husbands to love their wives “as Christ loved the church.” And spoiler alert: the bar is Jesus.
We break down:
- What servant leadership really means (and what it doesn’t)
- Why authority in marriage is meant for sacrifice, not control
- Practical, everyday examples of loving your wife well
- How husbands can initiate spiritual leadership at home
- The difference between passivity and Christlike leadership
If you’ve ever wondered what Ephesians 5 looks like on a Tuesday night, this episode is for you.
Next week, we’ll tackle the other half of the conversation.
