God reveals that in addition to curses on motherhood, woman is going to experience a curse on her marriage. We'll look at how this typically plays out, and then contrast it with the great redemptive hope for marriages provided through the Cross, the Holy Spirit, and God's Word.
SMALL GROUP QUESTIONS:
- What are some practical ways husbands can love their wives “as Christ loved the Church”?
- What does it look like, practically, for a wife to submit to her husband “as to the Lord”?
- How might focusing on pleasing Christ, rather than our spouse, actually lead to a healthier and more fulfilling marriage?
- How can couples support each other in resisting the natural inclinations brought about by the Curse (women desiring control, men ruling as tyrants) in their marriage?
- A question for married couples in the group: How have you seen the Holy Spirit sanctify your perspective on marriage over the years?
