Unity | Ephesians 2:11-22

When the gospel came to Ephesus in the first century AD, a riot broke out. The good news of Jesus upended pagan ways of thinking and living. A similar confrontation awaits us as we encounter Paul’s letter to the Ephesians. This glorious epistle challenges us to ponder the story we're living in, the purpose we're pursuing, and the relationships we're building along the way. In this series, we see how gospel doctrine ignites renewal and love as we get swept up in God’s purpose to unite and fill all things in Jesus Christ.

Why is it that essentially every modern person values diversity and equity? Well, Christianity and the gospel. But our world is longing for real, meaningful unity. In Ephesians 2 we find the power and purpose for unity. God's heart is for his church to be a people where different people - different racially, ethnically, socio-economically, politically- are united together because they have first been united with Christ.
