Radiant Bride – an Ephesians 5 Craft
The Bible passage Ephesians 5:25-27 describes how a husband should love his wife, and how a wife should submit to her husband. It also talks about how the church is the bride of Christ, and how He loves and cherishes her. This craft is inspired by the idea of a radiant bride, loved and cherished by her bridegroom.
