About this listen

Have you ever wondered if there's more to the biblical teachings on submission and headship than what you've been taught? What if the traditional understanding has missed the point entirely?

With careful examination of biblical texts, original language, and historical context, the author reveals how our cultural blind spots have led us to distort Paul's revolutionary message into something that looks more like worldly dominance than Christ's Kingdom.

BLIND SPOT challenges the traditional interpretations that have shaped Christian marriages for centuries by showing that:

  • Biblical submission was always meant to be mutual, not one-sided
  • The husband as "head" isn't about authority but about initiating unity
  • Paul wasn't endorsing patriarchy; he was subverting it through love

Drawing connections between Paul's teachings on wives and slaves, Dewbrew demonstrates how the apostle was working within broken systems to transform them from the inside out. Just as Christians now understand that biblical passages about slavery were not endorsing the institution but providing a revolutionary framework to undermine it, she argues that the same is true for passages about wives submitting to husbands.

With compelling insights, personal stories, and solid biblical scholarship, Dewbrew addresses how teachings about male authority, even in their most "benign" forms, can provide cover for narcissistic control and spiritual manipulation. She offers a path toward relationships that truly reflect God's nature.

Whether you're struggling with traditional teachings about submission, seeking to build a marriage that reflects Christ's love for the Church, or simply hungry for biblical truth that sets people free, BLIND SPOT will help you see what generations of readers have missed. It's time to remove the blinders and discover the liberating truth that's been hiding in plain sight all along.
