About this episode
What if being a godly husband isn’t about how you feel about your wife, but how you love her — even when it costs you everything? In Week 5 of Stand Firm and Act Like Men, we look at Ephesians 5 and what it truly means to be a godly husband. Biblical love isn’t based on feelings — it’s sacrificial, intentional, and
action-driven, modeled after Christ and His love for the church. Whether you’re married or preparing for marriage, this message calls men to lead with humility, pursue with purpose, and love like Jesus. Are you willing to love first, love fully, and love sacrificially? 📣 Episode Mentions: • Scripture Passage: Ephesians 5:25-27 • Preacher: Pastor Matt Carter 📌 Supplemental Resources From This Week: • A Love That Stands Firm - Wade's Story • Be A Godly Husband - Stand Firm & Act Like Men: Wk 5 (Full Sermon) • The Call of a Godly Husband - Deepen with Pastor Joby Martin S24E5 • Stand Firm and Act Like Men Sermon Series Series • Deepen with Pastor Joby Martin About The Church of Eleven22 The Church of Eleven22® is a movement for all people to discover and deepen a relationship with Jesus Christ.
