The Umbrella

October 2, 2026

Ephesians 5:21-25 begins with mutual submission and then calls husbands to love their wives the way Christ loved the church. God's authority is like an umbrella: the protection is right there, but so many of us hold it at arm's length and wonder why we're getting soaked. Authority issues are a hidden cause of relational breakdown, and the call is to stop fighting over the umbrella and step under it.

Bear It
