Beyond Sunday | The Book of Ephesians | Episode 8 Pastors JoAnn Johnson, Jared Johnson, and Markus Witherspoon

July 28, 2026    In this episode of Beyond Sunday, the team digs into Ephesians 5:21–33 and Paul's vision of marriage as far more than a contract — a living picture of Christ and the Church. They talk honestly about what mutual submission actually looks like day to day, why sacrificial love and Christ-centered respect are so counter-cultural, and how the way spouses treat each other becomes a visible picture of the invisible God. The conversation zooms out too: whether you're married, single, divorced, or hoping to be married one day, God's vision for marriage points all of us back to Jesus. Whether you're looking for encouragement, perspective, or a deeper understanding of the Gospel, this conversation will help you continue the journey beyond Sunday.
