  • #229 What Is Biblical Male-Headship (and what it’s not…)

    Joe breaks down Ephesians 5 and some common errors people interpret from the text. He explains what authentic Catholic male-headship looks like. Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer, and for many people one of the hardest biblical teachings to know what to do with is this idea of male headship.
