Does submission in marriage mean someone has to be the boss? This week on Table for Two, Jason and Nicole tackle the infamous "umbrella theology"—you know, the one that says God is in charge, then the husband, then the wife, then the kids, then the dog (probably). But is that really what Scripture teaches?
In this playful yet honest conversation, they explore how Ephesians 5 has been misused to prop up patriarchal systems and what mutual submission actually looks like in real-life relationships. From personal stories to deep biblical insight this episode challenges traditional roles while offering a freeing, grace-filled alternative grounded in love, respect, and equality.
Whether you’ve lived under the umbrella or never heard of it before, pull up a chair. There’s room for you at the table.
