Stephen brings a classic word study on the idea of "submission". First, in the context of marriage, we discuss the outsized impact a simple phrase like "wives submit to your husbands" has on the culture in gender roles and divisions of labor. Then we discuss church authority! And tune in for an embarrassing story of teenage Stephen talking back to his mom!

Mentioned in the episode: 

• Ephesians 5:21-33 - Instructions for Christian Households
• Antifragile by Nassim Taleb
