Video Resource: Q&A on Headship and Submission
More Thoughts Related to Ephesians 5 and Gender Roles
Hannah and I were recently invited by a church to unpack the meaning of biblical headship and submission according to Ephesians 5, which led to this message at our own church as well as this corresponding blog post related to Bible layout and translation issues surrounding Ephesians 5:21-22.
However, that message was not able to dive into some of the more practical and pastoral questions that arise out of this often difficult and confusing topic for many.
So we created a supplemental video (embedded above) to answer some of those questions, such as:
1. What do I do if my husband continually insists that I submit to him?
2. What about other Bible passages that seem to say women should not teach or that men are the authority?
3. If there’s disagreement between husband and wife, who gets the “final word”?
4. What then does it mean for a man or woman to be a “leader” in the home?
Hope you find it helpful! As always, for more resources on this topic:
