Scripture Reference: Ephesians 3:14-21

Sermon Points:
Scripture Reference: Ephesians 3:1-13
Add the wonder of Paul’s description of the church in God’s eternal plan together with the immensity of the blessings afforded to those “in Christ,” and Paul realizes that he has something that people need to know. The first half of Ephesians 3 is highly instructive of an evangelism that isn’t packaged but full of joy.

Scripture Reference: Ephesians 2:1-10
