UNION (2022)

Ephesians is all about how God transforms your story, your identity, everything you are, and how, as God’s story becomes yours, you live that out, each and every day. Ephesians is about the union of heaven and earth in you. That union is God’s ultimate goal, the end of all things. What we find in the last pages of the Bible is a God who dwells eternally with mankind, where heaven and earth overlap, and we live wholly and completely under his reign and rule.

We know that this is not how things are right now. We live in a society that fights against that union, because since the foundation of the world, mankind has sought to rule for himself, to make his own way and live his own life apart from God. But see, God has these little pockets of heaven, little windows to eternity, spaced out around the globe. These pockets are his disciples. Followers like you and me, who have been rescued from darkness, saved by grace, brought into his family. And so, when the world sees us, they see heaven.
