Krista and Rick discuss some common misconceptions on the notion of submission in marriage in regards to Ephesians 5:21-22, along with cultural expections first century wives faces. They consider what Christ-likeness in a marriage looks like, and Rick asks us to consider our own skewed perspectives that we bring to our marriage relationships. Rick answers my question, "is being equal in being, but unequal in function or role" really a truism of Christianity?" After exploring the idea that since most western Christian marriages have as an ideal a sense of equality and partnership (at least in their best moments), Krista asks, could that be an ideal that we could adopt in our churches and institutions as well?
