Being Like Christ to Your Wife

Being Like Christ to Your Wife. Men, the call to greatness doesn’t start in boardrooms or on stages; it begins at home. It starts with how you love, lead, and serve those closest to you, beginning with your wife. Creation began in a marriage. It's going to end in a marriage. So husbands are called to model out in our homes how Christ loved the Church.

The world says leadership comes with dominance, but the Bible says that true greatness is found in humility and in modeling Christ's love. Marriage is a sacred covenant, rooted in the example Christ set when He gave Himself for the Church. “Husbands, love your wives as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her” (Ephesians 5:25). Christ didn’t lead with pride but with selfless love. He served without seeking anything in return.

This is the call to husbands—to out-serve, to out-love, and to inspire your family through action. Start by reflecting on how you’re leading today. Are you quick to criticize and slow to appreciate? Do you expect your wife to serve you, or do you step up to serve in small tasks without being asked?

Manhood isn’t proven by fixing a car or mowing the lawn but by getting to work to help those you love and showing kindness in your words and generosity in your actions. In Christlike marriage we love and nurture our wives. She may have changed since you said your vows, but so have you. Life brings challenges, but it also strengthens the bond between man and wife when grounded in Christ.

The key is humility. When you support and honor her, you reflect Christ’s unconditional love for His Bride, the Church.
