Laying Down His Life: How a Husband Should Love His Wife According to Scripture

Scripture teaches that a husband’s love for his wife should reflect Christ’s love for the church—sacrificial, selfless, and enduring. In laying down his life, a husband honors God by putting his wife’s needs above his own, nurturing her in faith, love, and support. Ephesians 5 calls husbands to lead with grace, cherishing their wives with the same devotion Christ showed. This powerful love strengthens both the marriage and the spiritual foundation it rests on.
