ephesianschapterfiveThe husband being the head or leader of the marraige is not a popular idea but, as it says in ephesians, the husband is supposed to be the head of the marraige as Jesus is the head of the church. People tend to straight away think of lazy men bossing women around and expecting their wife to do everything for them, but that is not headship based on Jesus.
Leadership as a husband is not about making all the decisions or being the boss. It's modelled on Jesus who came to serve, not to be served. Its doing everything I can to make sure Lisa can be as close to God as possible (v27). Praying for her, supporting her, encouraging her, doing anything I can to serve her and make her flourish.
