Pastor John K. Jenkins Sr.

Love and Respect in Marriage

Marriage is God’s divine design to reflect the relationship between Christ and the Church. From Ephesians 5, Pastor Jenkins taught that wives are called to respect and submit to their husbands, while husbands are called to love their wives sacrificially, as Christ loved the Church. Submission does not give a husband permission to dictate, dominate, or control his wife, and a husband’s leadership is demonstrated through service, not control. A godly marriage requires both spouses to move beyond selfishness and intentionally practice love and respect, so their covenant becomes a visible testimony of Christ’s love.
