Trinity Grace Church

Rev. Corey Pelton reminds us of the reconciling power of grace from Ephesians 2:1-10.

That You May Know! The Apostle Paul writes to the Ephesians why the wonderful, precious truths of the introduction aren’t just theological truths for the ivory tower but actually impact everyday faith and life.

Paul begins the letter to the Ephesians with one, very long sentence showing us what it really means to be blessed.  It is the golden chain of redemption, a panorama of God's purposes in Christ Jesus, from the past, to the present, to the future.

Greetings and Salutations are sometimes more than just a fancy "hello."  Sometimes, like here in Ephesians 1:1-2, they can teach us about God, about ourselves, and about the world around us.

In many ways, our ministry, our message, and our motive are all about the gospel of Jesus Christ to the glory of God.

As we seek to send out those we love and thsoe who love us to plant another church, we look to the Church in Antioch who sent those they loved and loved them.

Last week we answered, "why are we doing what we're doing with church planting" from Philippians 1.  Today, we answer from Philippians 2, "how are we going to do what we're doing?"  The answer may surprise you...and encourage you!

We are partners in prayer, because we have been made partners in grace, that we may also be partners in love.

When we see God for who He is, and ourselves for who we are, we see more clearly our need for Jesus.
