The Truth About Submission Most People Get Wrong

In this powerful episode of Grace & Truth Talks, Pastor James and Pastor Tiffany dive deep into the biblical roles of men and women, leadership in relationships, and the importance of spiritual submission to God.

What does it really mean for a man to lead his household? What does biblical submission actually look like? And how do you build a relationship that is rooted in purpose, vision, and God’s order?

Pastor James shares his personal testimony—from growing up without a father to spending eight years in federal prison, and how discovering his purpose in God completely transformed his life. The conversation also explores how identity, leadership, and vision shape healthy relationships and strong families.
