Summary
Using Ephesians 5:22-33, the pastor teaches that godly marriage centers on the other person rather than self-interest. Wives are called to submit to their husbands as unto the Lord, while husbands are called to sacrificial love reflecting Christ's love for the church—together creating oneness rather than competition.
Highlights
Godly marriage doesn't compete, it completes. Godly marriage doesn't compete, it complements one another.

Marital satisfaction in me and Meredith is much more about what I do for her than what I'm expecting for her to do to me.
