Paul's Letter to the Ephesians

Our goal for the next few weeks will be to give everyone in the congregation a greater understanding of this powerful letter written by Paul to the church at Ephesus.  The book inspires Christians not only to understand the blessings we have in Christ, but to realize how He has made us alive through His sacrifice on the cross.  It also gives us insight into the power of His Holy Spirit as well as direction for building up the church and keeping it unified.

Paul also gives us insight into the new life we have as Christians as well as the war that we are fighting with Satan.  In six (6) short chapters, the apostle enlightens us on many aspects of the Christian life.  Beginning this week and continuing through the summer months we are encouraging everyone to spend a great deal of time studying the book of Ephesians.  We will be doing the following things to enhance our study.

1. I will give some introductory sermons on Ephesians the next few weeks.
2. Each Sunday evening we will read one chapter from the book of Ephesians.
3. During our Wednesday night summer series each speaker will present a lesson on the book of Ephesians.
4. We are encouraging every family to set aside time each week to study a part of the book of Ephesians at home.
5. Discussions will be conducted in some of our Bible classes from the book of Ephesians.
