Ephesians 5: 22-33
In American society, and especially a progressive city like Providence, the biblical ideas of husbands being the head of the wives and wives submitting to their husbands seems out of date. Society now boasts of a much better way of doing marriage. The old-fashioned Bible ideas have been tossed aside as the antithesis of female empowerment. Meanwhile, divorce rates have skyrocketed and fewer people even get married. Is the wisdom of the Bible really outdated? What is God’s design for marriage? What does marriage look like as God intends it to be? Why did God design it this way? How has the fall of man complicated His design? These are the questions explored in this teaching.
