Ephesians 1:3-14 “A Reason for Gladness”



This week’s message is based on a passage from the lectionary. In Ephesians 3 we’ll hear the Good News that God has both noticed and adopted us into his family. We live in a world where everyone is competing to be ‘good enough’ and to prove their worth beyond that of another. But we exist in a deeper reality where our worth is affirmed by the God who created us. We do not have to be in competition with others for the love of God, as this passage in Ephesians also declares that God is working “to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ.” We are free to rejoice in God’s love and plan for both us and the world around us as well!
