Ephesians 3:1-21
Rev. Joel St. Clair

Paul expands on the mystery of God’s salvation — namely that God’s plan of salvation expanded beyond one nation to include even the Gentiles (non Jewish people). In light of the riches of God’s mystery, Paul calls the church toward prayer life that asks for a deeper understanding and appreciation of God and his love for us.

The letter to the church in Ephesus and surrounding churches gives them a framework for what God is doing in the world. The unfolding power of God in Jesus Christ flips the structures and authorities that we may be used to - even comfortable with - in ways that call us to live changed lives.
