Ephesians 4: Living Worthy, Protecting Unity, and Growing in Maturity

Jeremy welcomes first-time guests, shares volunteer opportunities tied to a community egg hunt in Shepherdsville (including sorting donated candy, hiding about 40,000 eggs, and staffing church booths), additional elementary-school egg hunts, and Easter service plans at Journey due to construction at Bullitt Central, including a Thursday 7:00 PM option and Sunday services at 8:30, 10:00, and 11:15, plus encouragement to use the Journey app to stay connected. The message shifts into an expository series on Ephesians, recapping chapters 1–3 and introducing chapter 4’s call to live a life worthy of the calling received, not to earn salvation but to align with grace and identity in Christ. Paul’s posture is humility, gentleness, patience, and love to preserve Spirit-given unity, anchored in seven “ones” (body, Spirit, hope, Lord, faith, baptism, God and Father), leading toward maturity expressed by speaking truth in love.
