When questioned about his commitment to male headship, Driscoll points to passages such as Titus 2, 1 Timothy 5:8, and Ephesians 5:23, which says the husband is "the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church."

Male headship and female submission, they argue, were imposed on the race subsequent to and consequent upon Adam's transgression.

Now here's what it looks like to be the head when you acknowledge Christ as Lord and seek to live life in the Spirit." The kind of headship that Paul endorses in Ephesians 5 is strange indeed.
