  Ephesians 2:11-22 / In our series “Finding Our Identity”, we have been

  exploring just how difficult it is to know who we are and what our purpose

  in life is. Oftentimes we look to our past to help us uncover who we truly

  are. In Ephesians 2, God does the same thing; he points us back to who we

  were before he found us and graciously declare who he has made us to be.

  Christ has become our hope, and because of that, our identity has been

  forever changed.
