Out of the Ashes- Poetry

The Big Picture: Ephesians

Give

Ephesians 2:1-10 talks about how we were in a dire spiritual situation before encountering God's grace. It describes it as being spiritually dead because of our sin. But then it shifts to how amazing God's mercy and love are. Through Jesus, we are saved by God's grace, not our good deeds. The passage stresses that salvation is a gift through believing, not something we can earn. It ends by saying that we are God's masterpiece, created to do good things that He already planned for us to do. We encountered some audio issues this week and thus decided to opt for something different.
