Ephesians: The Gospel changes everything

The letter to the Ephesian church is Paul’s literary masterpiece. In it, he works out his understanding of who God is, what God has done, and what he is doing in and through the Church. Much of that could be summed up in his statement in chapter 1, verse 10 - “A plan…to unite all things in Him, things in heaven and on earth.”

In other words, God is putting us and the world back together. Through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, God is redeeming a people for Himself and the world back to its original design.

This series takes 14 weeks to work through the letter to the Ephesians, examining what the gospel is and how that impacts our lives and the world around us.
