June 2, 2024 | Ephesians 1.1-2 | Rob Collis

From the very beginning of his letter to the church in Ephesus, the Apostle Paul’s writing and imagination is steeped in God’s activity in Jesus Christ. And he wants us to get caught up in that with him. As we begin a new preaching series going through Paul’s letter to the Ephesians, Rob preaches from Ephesians 1.1-2.

Unpacking Paul’s greeting to this church in Ephesus, and the say he addresses them, he helps us to see that from the very first words of this letter – and before he’s even got to verse 3 – the way Paul says “hello” reveals he is intent on grounding us in the good news of Jesus Christ, and the implications for what it means in our lives.
