Segment 1

• Todd Friel turns a “Mother’s Day sermon” into a direct challenge to husbands: do you actually know your wife beneath surface-level habits?

• “I’ve been married 20 years… but do I really understand her heart?” — the uncomfortable marriage question most men avoid.

• Why are so many Christian marriages stuck in behavior management instead of real spiritual intimacy?

Segment 2

• What secretly drives your wife’s fear, frustration, or anger — and have you ever bothered to ask?

• Todd and Jimmy unpack the “deeper conversations” that could completely change the emotional temperature of your home.

• “How am I doing as a husband?” sounds brave… until you hear the answer.

Segment 3

• Egalitarianism vs. complementarianism: does the Bible really teach “mutual submission” in marriage?

• Todd tackles the controversial debate around authority, leadership, and whether modern Christians are redefining biblical roles.

• If husbands are called to lead, what does Christlike leadership actually look like without becoming domineering?

Segment 4

• First-century Rome treated women like second-class citizens — so why were Peter’s commands to husbands considered shocking?

• Todd argues Christians are fighting the culture war the wrong way — and offers a far more radical alternative.

• What if honoring bad leaders, difficult spouses, and harsh authorities is actually the church’s greatest countercultural weapon?
