Ephesians: Building God's Missional Temple
Ephesians is a wonderful letter about everything! The various themes of the letter tie together very practically in the Apostle Paul’s concern that Christians should understand that they are individually members of a new corporate entity he describes as both a body and a temple. This corporate entity, the church, is responsible for carrying out God’s mission to bless the nations. Crucially, for the church do to what it’s made by God to do requires every believer to find their place and make their contribution as their lives and relationships are transformed. This means that every believer has a unique and indispensable contribution to make to the life and witness of the body of Christ - there are no little people.
We will be spending the summer months exploring this marvellously practical and deeply theological book and asking what difference it should make to our lives now.
