A New Way to Be Human | Ephesians 4:17-32
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.
In Christ there is a whole new way to be human but living as a new human is not automatic. Discipleship to Jesus means we must learn what it means to put off the old way and put on the new. In this teaching we explore what the new way to be human requires, what the new way to be human often misses, and what the new way to be human looks like.
