In this opening message from the book of Ephesians, we lay a vital foundation for the weeks ahead by confronting one of the defining issues of our time: pluralism.  

In a world where everyone has “their truth” and countless voices compete for our allegiance, politics, money, family, culture, even spirituality, Paul’s letter to the church in Ephesus calls us back to one uncompromising reality: Jesus alone has all authority. 

Ephesus was wealthy, busy, and spiritually crowded, much like our world today. Against that backdrop, Paul reminds believers of who they are in Christ, where their hope comes from, and the immeasurable power available to those who believe, the same power that raised Jesus from the dead. 

In this message we explore: 

• Christ’s authority over every power, ruler, and ideology. 

• What it truly means to be Kingdom people. 

• Why identity in Christ must outweigh cultural pressure. 

• The difference between knowledge, wisdom, and spiritual insight. 

• How confident hope anchors us in uncertain times. 

As wars rage, systems fail, distractions multiply, and fear tries to take hold, Ephesians points us back to a simple but radical truth: nothing outranks the authority of Jesus.  

Stay under His headship and live from the confident hope He has already secured you and your eternity.
