Episode Synopsis

This section of Ephesians 5 is wildly unpopular among many brides. The notion of submission in a marriage is a stumbling block that it is very hard for us to overcome, the clear reason for this is that like in Mark 7, "submission" is so often couched in the external "law" of submission that has nothing to do with this verse. Instead, this verse seeks to show a wonderful relationship between two lovers: Christ and His Bride the Church. We transition to talking about how we "Celebrate Gifts Given" in this sermon and discuss how we can celebrate those who submit to us, and those who sacrifice for us - and how we can see a picture of Christ and His Church through these actions of others.
