Bobby talks about the shift in culture toward an egalitarian approach in American Christianity. They both teach on what it looks like for men to lead like Jesus in the home. They discuss the nuanced idea of mutual submission and how this concept is interpreted oftentimes in an egalitarian viewpoint.
