SCRIPTURE: Ephesians 4:1-16

It is a sad truth that no major life advancements come easily. Growth and development take time and they take effort. That’s also true when it comes to the New Community God is building. For God’s community to be a life-giving community, we have some hard work to do. But the rewards will be worth it!

SCRIPTURE: Ephesians 2:1-10

I guess if we want to have power for living, we probably should know where our life comes from in the first place. Don’t you think? Well, the source of our life is not our parents.
