In his brilliant finish to this beautiful letter, Paul instructs the believer how to get dressed in God's armor. Who are we to think that we can enter a world at war with just our skin on? We can't, and we shouldn't. God has provided, through the power of the Holy Spirit, spiritual armor to cover our minds, hearts, souls, spirits, and wills. Let's get dressed!

Ephesians 5: Walk Like Jesus
In Ephesians 5, Paul tells us more about what it means to live in the light. Namely, it means to walk like Jesus. And that, my friend, means to love. To love God, to love others, to love our families, to love the Church. To love is to be like Jesus.

Ephesians 4: Not a Solo Act
All too often we fall into a trap of thinking that our Christian faith is private, something we keep to ourselves. That is far from the biblical reality. In Ephesians 4, Paul pleads with the believers in Ephesus to be united in the Body of Christ - to share their gifts with one another so that together they can be built into a strong, mature body of believers.
Following Jesus was never meant to be a solo act - we are in this together!

Ephesians 2: Tear Down the Walls!
In the second chapter of Ephesians, Paul explains the magnificent way in which God saved us through grace and raised us on high in Christ. Because of the great way in which we were saved, there is no room for hostility or barriers. God has done the unthinkable in bringing together Jews and Gentiles into ONE family, and he has torn down the wall of separation. Let us tear down the walls in our own lives!
Jesus says that the Kingdom of God is like a hidden pearl, which, upon finding it, becomes dearer to the finder than anything he or she has ever found.
God’s Word is just like that, full of hidden treasures and truths that are more precious than this world has to offer.
Join us in this podcast as we study Scripture and seek pearls together.
