  • Ephesians 3:7-9

    Theme: We have adequate, divine resources to fulfill Christ’s mission in a way that honors Him.

    Paul continues discussing the resources available to Christians in service of the “mystery.” What was not formerly understood by everyone is now revealed: God offers the Gospel to all the world. Paul’s focus shifts back to his person for these verses – but he is also describing you! All members of the new, unified Christian family have a responsibility to carry out the mission.

  • Ephesians 3:1-4

    Theme: We have adequate, divine resources to fulfill Christ’s mission in a way that honors Him.

    Just as a soldier’s backpack contains everything they need for survival and execution of their mission, Christians have been given adequate resources by God Himself. As God’s soldiers, we are properly prepared to survive in the field of Christian service.
