Questions To Consider:
- Read Ephesians 5:25-33. What stands out to you? What questions arise from this passage?
- Paul spends three verses addressing wives and nine addressing husbands. What do you think that reveals about the weight and responsibility of Christlike leadership?
- In what ways can a husband (or any Christian) “die a thousand small deaths” in daily relationships? What would that look like?
- The sermon asked: “Is my spouse becoming more like Jesus because I am in their life?” How would you answer that question regarding your closest relationships?
- What are some practical ways couples can build a “reservoir of joy” before difficult seasons arrive?
- Paul says in this passage that marriage ultimately points beyond itself to Christ and the church. How can Christian marriages become a visible witness to the gospel in today’s culture?
