Title: The Family Defined-Pt 1 (10)
Series: Ephesians
Author: Brian Mills
Text: Ephesians 5:21-33
This journey through Ephesians has been so good.
From the Theology we need to the life we are called to live.
Paul is challenging some of the people he knew best on the planet on how to live a walk Worthy of Christ.
In EPH 4-5 He challenged to Live this Walk Worthy Personally
Now in the latter part of Chapter 5, we find how the Family must Walk Worthy and what a Family Defined looks like?
We know the Family Is under attack today and it starts with our Marriages.

34% of marriages end due to Infidelity
31% lack of Intimacy
31% Conflict - we can't get along
24% money
63% of divorcees believe a better understanding of the commitments of marriage could have helped them avoid divorce

Accept It
Do something about it!!

How do we get along?

Followship is the greatest trait of a great leader.
[NIV] 22 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord.23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. 24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.
[NIV] 25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her 26 to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, 27 and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain ...
