Biblical headship in the home is the husband's
divine calling to take primary responsibility for
Christlike leadership, protection, and provision.
- John Piper

Headship is not so much about being in charge
or taking control.
Headship is more about taking responsibility
to lead.

The Book of Hebrews defines Jesus role in
leading His Church
18
Hebrews 620 Where the forerunner has entered
for us, even Jesus, having become High Priest
forever according to the order of Melchizedek.
19
Hebrews 11-2 God, who at various times and in
various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by
the prophets, has in these last days spoken to
us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all
things, through whom also He made the worlds.
20
Hebrews 18-9 But to the Son He says "Your
throne, O God, is forever and ever A scepter of
righteousness is the scepter of Your Kingdom.
Therefore God, Your God, has anointed You With
the oil of gladness more than Your companions."
