A wife’s Christian commitment includes choosing to submit to her husband as part of living out her faith (see 1 Corinthians 11:3–10; 14:34–35; Colossians 3:18; 1 Timothy 2:11–12; Titus 2:5; 1 Peter 3:1–6). At the same time, all Christians (including husbands and wives) are called to submit to one another out of respect for Christ (Ephesians 5:21). At the same time, husbands are called to love their wives and care for them sacrificially, following the example of Christ (see Ephesians 5:21–23). This mutual submission, respect, and love build a healthy, God-honoring marriage.
