Lavished by Grace | Matt Beasley

Ephesians 1:7–14 — "In Him we have redemption through His blood" — grace not measured out, but lavished. Lead Pastor Matt Beasley continues A Study Through Ephesians at Severns Valley.

Paul moves from what God purposed before time into your present, lived experience: in Christ you have redemption — present tense, already true. And the sin it covers isn't abstract; it's the specific, curated "buffet" each of us steps up to. Onto that, God lavishes the riches of His grace.

A few things to carry into your week:

- Redemption is present tense — not "will have" or "should have," but "we have," right now.
- Sin isn't general; it's the particular, personal things from this very week.
- Grace isn't rationed — it's lavished, the riches of His grace poured out.
- Though your sins be scarlet, the blood makes them white; the distance you feel is felt in you alone — His blood brings you all the way to the throne.

"Will you let grace be lavished on the one sin you'd rather keep hidden?"
