The Adventure of a Lifetime (Ephesians 4:1) – Study 89

We, as the body of Christ, are to have a singular focus on Jesus Christ. While the modern church is marked by division, denomination, and being divisive, Paul calls the church to guard and protect the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. In this message, Nathan gives an overview of Ephesians 4:4-6 and examines the seven times Paul uses the term “one” in the passage. This message is an important one for our day as Paul calls the church into greater unity, integrity, and living in “one accord.”---------------------Deeper Christian Bible Study in Ephesians • Study 96Download the study notes for this episode and get other Christ-centered teaching and resources at: deeperchristian.com/ephesians-study-096/

Paul exhorts believers in Ephesians 4:2-3 to be marked by love and unity with one another. If we are called to the high calling of Christ, we must be marked by His love and life—which means the Christian life cannot be lived in a vacuum, rather it must be lived in relationship and community. In this study, we examine what it means to bear with one another in love and to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.---------------------Deeper Christian Bible Study in Ephesians • Study 95Download the study notes for this episode and get other Christ-centered teaching and resources at: deeperchristian.com/ephesians-study-095/

You have a calling in your life, which is to be conformed in the image of Christ. Knowing about your calling is insufficient; we must live it out. As such, your life must be tested and proven against the perfect standard of Jesus Christ. In this study from Ephesians 4:2-3, we examine humility—the first of Paul’s five initial tests that our lives must reflect if we hope to walk worthy of the calling with which we have been called.---------------------Deeper Christian Bible Study in Ephesians • Study 91Download the study notes for this episode and get other Christ-centered teaching and resources at: deeperchristian.com/ephesians-study-091/

Jesus is Lord! But what does that mean practically for our lives as believers? If we are going to truly understand and embrace God’s calling on our lives, we must first embrace the One who has called us. In this study, we look at God being our Lord and Shepherd and the three things these two characteristics of God have in common for our daily lives as Christians.---------------------Deeper Christian Bible Study in Ephesians • Study 88Download the study notes for this episode and get other Christ-centered teaching and resources at: deeperchristian.com/ephesians-study-088/

While we know Paul was a prisoner of Rome for the sake of the Gospel, he boldly declares that He is a prison IN the Lord—that his position and focus is Jesus Christ. In order for us to have a proper understanding of God’s calling in our lives, we, like Paul, need to see ourselves in a proper position of humility, submission, and surrender to the One who has called us. In this expositional message from Ephesians 4:1, Nathan Johnson explores what it means to be a prisoner IN the Lord and how that changes everything for a Christian.---------------------Deeper Christian Bible Study in Ephesians • Study 87Download the study notes for this episode and get other Christ-centered teaching and resources at: deeperchristian.com/ephesians-study-087/
