Biblical headship is rooted in creation, clarified in Christ, and ordered toward the good of the family.
Genesis affirms the equal dignity of man and woman as image-bearers, while Ephesians and 1 Peter define a husband’s leadership as sacrificial love, understanding, and honor, not domination or self-will (Genesis 1:27; Genesis 2:23; Ephesians 5:25-29; 1 Peter 3:7).
True headship bears responsibility before God and serves the flourishing of the household under the lordship of Christ.
