Ephesians 5:25-27, presents a simple but yet difficult task. “ Husbands, live your wives, just as Christ also lived the church and gave himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spit or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.” I have read these verses over and over again and each and every time I ask the same question; is the possible? Is it possible to love like this? In the latest episode, Alexis and I have an in-depth conversation on the topic “Love Like This”.

This episode issues a challenge to husbands; to love their wives like Christ loved the church. What does this look like? How can I love her when she makes it hard to love her? How do we overcome the backages that she brings from here past? We look at what it means to love unconditionally. As a husband it is our responsibility to love her through all the pain, hurt, trauma, bad relationships and more. We have been assigned by Christ to love our wife so much she is being transformed each and every day. Who she is now, looks nothing like who she was before. Just a Christ is transforming us each and every day into a new person. We are not just asked to love that way, we have been commanded to.
