Does the word “submission” make you uncomfortable? In a world that resists authority, Ephesians 5 offers a revolutionary perspective. Join us in the Carpenter Shop as we explore how being “filled with the Spirit” is deeply connected to a misunderstood, yet godly, quality: submission. Discover how Christ modeled it, how it applies to all believers (and specifically in marriage as a two-way street), and why embracing submission from God’s viewpoint is key to living the abundant life He designed for you. Don’t be afraid to submit – watch how your life changes!
