118: What is Biblical Headship?


Listen Later

Headship is one of the most misunderstood—and misused—concepts in modern Christianity.

In this episode, Todd and Laura examine how Scripture defines authority between men and women in the church, and why so many modern expressions of “biblical leadership” look nothing like the New Testament. They explore how headship has been reshaped by Western corporate models, how abuse distorts authority at every level, and why Scripture anticipates those dangers rather than ignoring them.

This discussion challenges both rigid complementarian systems and culture-driven egalitarian reactions, offering a more faithful biblical framework rooted in Christ’s example, covenant responsibility, and mutual submission under His lordship.

If you’ve ever wondered whether the church is defending God’s design—or protecting traditions that no longer reflect Scripture—this episode invites you to reconsider what true headship actually is.
