Hope Live | Lord, Make Me Holy | Ephesians 5:21-6:9 | Nay Lapworth

When Nay first saw she’d be preaching on “wives submit to your husbands,” her reaction was pure terror (as her meme slides hilariously prove). But what she discovered in Ephesians 5:21–6:9 flips cultural assumptions upside down. In this bold and relatable talk, she tackles:

  • Why “submit” isn’t a dirty word—and how biblical submission is actually an act of strength (modeled by Jesus Himself).

  • The masculinity crisis no one’s talking about—why men like Andrew Tate miss the mark, and what true Christlike leadership looks like.

  • “God shapes your character, not your personality”—how submission works for strong women (including Nay’s own story of wrestling with this text).

  • When relationships feel one-sided—what to do if your spouse, parent, or boss isn’t holding up their end.

  • The radical counterculture of mutual submission—where both partners sacrifice (with cookie-sharing included!).

Whether you’re single, married, or skeptical of “traditional” roles, this message will challenge you to see relationships through a gospel lens—not as power struggles, but as sacred opportunities to reflect Christ’s love.
