Community Life Church Gulf Breeze, Florida

We hope you’ll join us for week two of our sermon series on the book of Ephesians.

In his letter to the church of Ephesus, Paul reminds us all of God’s plan of salvation for both Jews and Gentiles. None of us are exempt from the grace or redemption we have in Christ Jesus.

We are called to walk this journey together, in unity, and we are called to walk in a manner worthy of the calling. If we have been given such great wealth and inheritance, what will we do with all that God has given us? What we know will impact what we do!!

In his letter to the Ephesians Paul reminds the church that God chose Jews and Gentiles to be adopted into His family through Christ. Paul reminds those who believe to know the hope, the inheritance, and the power afforded to them as one unified body. But as one unified family, believers must live a life worthy of their calling as mature believers in healthy communities and healthy relationships.

This week, we conclude our Paul's Missionary Journey Series and study how he is transferred as a prisoner to Rome to await his appeal to Caesar. Along the way, Paul turns calamity and captivity into courageous opportunities to share the Gospel at an unscheduled stop and under house arrest in Rome as he obediently takes the next step in faith.

This Sunday, we will conclude Paul's Third Missionary Journey. As he rounds out this journey, he visits old friends and encourages them, but the Holy Spirit ultimately leads him back to Jerusalem, where he is warned that arrest and persecution await him

This week, Paul embarks on his Third Missionary Journey! He will visit a few old friends along the way to strengthen and encourage them, and we will see him shift his strategies and model for mission work. Up to this point, Paul has been 'the traveling missionary,' but in Ephesus, he slows down and takes on a new role in his missionary work.

"Paul had a unique set of gifts, credentials, abilities, accolades, training, experiences, citizenship, and personality traits that he leveraged to spread the good news of Jesus to a wide variety of people on his journeys. His ability to look at his surroundings, consider the culture, and adjust the way he presented the Gospel was a powerful tool to connect people to Jesus. What characteristics, relationships, and attributes has God placed in your life that you could use to point others to a life with Jesus?"

"Paul's journeys led him to meet people who helped spread the Gospel in new ways to unique communities. God connects us, too, with exactly the right people in our travels when we need them in order to fulfill our missionary journeys."
