This past Sunday, Pastor Eric did a talk titled "To Submit or Not to Submit". The talk was designed to create a conversation and invite people into looking deeper at this passage of scripture, Ephesians 5:15-33. More specifically, the usage of the word “submit”, in relationships between people and between husband and wife.
What’s important to note is by the time we read Ephesians 5, Paul has laid a foundation for a new identity where we are loved, accepted, and we are His sons and daughters. This new identity moves us closer to how God views and interacts with humanity and relationships. The driving narrative of this new identity is God’s Love. This is vital to grasp as it sets the stage for what Paul's and God's intent is for what “submission” looks like in our lives.
So the question now emerges, what is Paul’s intent with the word “submit”? What does it mean for submission to happen in a marriage? Make sure you listen to this week’s talk to learn more about this. You might be pleasantly surprised.
