After exulting in the blessings that God has given the church, Paul prays that we would be able to see and comprehend those blessings, so that we may be able to live the Christian life.
Paul continues in this word of praise by counting the blessings of those who are in Christ. This week's passage centers around the redemption we have in Christ and the revelation we have of Christ.
Paul emphasizes that the blessings we have in Christ are "in the heavenly places," why is this such an important idea in Christianity? Why does it matter?
