(Ephesians 2: 11-22)Now, as we move into the second half of this chapter, Paul does something very pastoral, very human, and very necessary. He asks a question. A question that every Christian, in every generation, needs to hear: How is your memory? Because Paul knows something we often forget:  The Christian life is not only shaped by what we believe, but by what we remember.So, in this next passage, Paul gently takes the church by the shoulders and says: “Remember.”This is a passage about identity, but it is also a passage about unity, reconciliation, and belonging. It is about the God who takes strangers and makes them citizens, who takes enemies and makes them family, who takes scattered stones and builds them into a temple.Support the showThis podcast is not associated with the Bible Project YouTube channel or any other associated podcasts that use the name 'Bible Project'.

Send us Fan MailThis Podcast is part of a 10-year project to complete an in-depth, daily study of the entire Bible, chapter by chapter, verse by verse. Episode Notes: From Death to Life - What are we saved for? (Ephesians 2: 1–10)If you've been following along, you'll know that the last few episodes have taken us up the mountain with Paul. We've stood with him as he blessed God for every spiritual blessing in Christ. We've listened as he prayed that the eyes of our hearts would be opened. We've explored the hope, the inheritance, and the power that belong to every believer. But today… He takes us down the mountain, back into the valley of human experience, back into the story of who we once were, back into the darkness from which God rescued us.  Because before you can appreciate the height of God's grace, you must understand the depth from which He lifted you. Ephesians 2:1–10 is one of the most breathtaking passages in the entire New Testament. It is the gospel in ten verses. It is the Christian story in miniature. It is your testimony and mine, told with clarity, honesty, and astonishing beauty. This passage will tell us who we were, what God has done, and who we are now. So, take a breath. Settle your heart. And let's step together into one of the greatest passages ever written.Support the showThis podcast is not associated with the Bible Project YouTube channel or any other associated podcasts that use the name 'Bible Project'.

June 7, 2026 Division comes naturally. We build walls between people based on politics, culture, values, backgrounds, and even our preferences within the church. Yet Ephesians 2 reveals that Jesus came to do the exact opposite. Through His death and resurrection, He tears down the walls that separate us and creates one new family united by grace. In Christ, outsiders become family, enemies become neighbors, and the church becomes a living picture of God's reconciling love. The question is not whether Jesus has torn down the walls—the question is whether we will live like they are truly gone. About this Sermon Series God has always had a plan. The book of Ephesians reveals the incredible story of God's plan to bring salvation to all people through Jesus Christ and unite them into one family. In this 13-week series, we'll discover what it means to live with purpose as people who have been chosen, redeemed, and called by God. Along the way, we'll explore how the Holy Spirit transforms our everyday relationships—with family, friends, the Church, and the world around us. Ephesians is an invitation to step into God's greater story and live the kind of life we were created for.

What is the biggest threat to your spiritual fire? It isn't doubt or persecution—it's amnesia [01:04]. When we forget what God has rescued us from, our passion fades and church can feel mechanical [02:24]. In this message, we dive into Ephesians 2 to see how Jesus radically redrew the boundary lines of faith. Before Christ, we were completely alienated and without hope [10:02]. But through His sacrifice on the cross, Jesus didn't just mend our vertical relationship with God—He destroyed the hostile, horizontal dividing walls that separate us from one another to create one new humanity [14:35], [17:16]. Because we share the same Holy Spirit, our unity isn't something we have to manufacture; it is a reality we are called to live out [19:40]. Living in disunity or harboring bitterness is like a spiritual autoimmune disease where the body attacks itself [21:52]. Listen in as we challenge ourselves to take the cross seriously by prioritizing authentic, loving community and letting the Holy Spirit make our biblical unity a tangible reality.

A true story that will explain the chaos and craziness of this world into which we are born. Invest 38 minutes and change your future in spite of your past. #news #life #death #newsbreak #love ( Photo attribution: www.vecteezy.com/free-photo/dead

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on the Daily Radio Bible, a daily Bible‑in‑a‑year podcast with 20‑minute Scripture readings, Christ‑centered devotion, and guided prayer.This daily Bible reading and devotional invites you to live as a citizen of Jesus' kingdom, reconciled, renewed, and deeply loved. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the June 6th episode of the Daily Radio Bible. Join Hunter, your Bible reading coach and brother, as he guides us through Ecclesiastes chapters 1–3, Psalm 45, and Ephesians 2. In today's episode, we wrestle with the profound questions of meaning, purpose, and hope presented in Ecclesiastes, contrasted with the message of unity, peace, and new life in Christ found in Ephesians. Hunter reflects on embracing God's gifts, finding joy in our daily lives, and the enduring power of prayer. Stay with us for encouragement, spiritual insight, and a reminder that you are not alone—and you are loved. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Meaningless, meaningless, cries the preacher. All is meaningless. Try as he might, he cannot make sense of his broken life. Nothing in the end seems to be right. All seems to be wrong. He cannot find a way to reconcile life's disparities. He has eternity in his heart, and yet the present is fraught with fractures. Nothing makes sense. That's the honest ache described in Ecclesiastes—a world where, under the sun, our best efforts seem to vanish like mist. Our wisdom, our toil, our striving—all end the same. There is frustration. There is longing for meaning. There is an ache for the eternal, yet an experience of only the temporary. But Paul, in Ephesians, cries out something different. You lived in this world without God and without hope. But now, he says, you have been united with Christ Jesus. Once you were far away from God, but now you have been brought near to him through the blood of Christ. Christ himself has brought us peace through the cross. The good news has come to us. In Christ, no longer is life meaningless and hopeless. No, now we have life in him. When we are tempted to see the world through the lens of despair and hopelessness, we can look to the life of Jesus. We can look to his sacrifice. We can look to the love that has been poured out in order that we might be united with him in our hopelessness and despair. He has offered us his love. His love led him to a cross so he could free us from that despair and offer us life here, life now with eternal purposes and present joy. The preacher says everything is meaningless, completely meaningless. But Paul says he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. There is someone far greater than Solomon who is able to mend the human soul and make us new. He is even now making all things new. So let us step into the eternal purposes that he has for us so that we can begin to live, abide, rest, play, and have joy and strength in Him. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL

May 31, 2026 Most people think the Gospel is about becoming a better person, but Ephesians 2 tells a much deeper story. Paul reminds us that sin doesn't just wound us, it leaves us spiritually dead and unable to save ourselves. Yet in the middle of humanity's worst news come two of the most hope-filled words in Scripture: “But God.” This message is about the God who meets us with mercy, raises us to new life through Jesus, and transforms us into His masterpiece filled with purpose and grace. About this Sermon Series: God has always had a plan. The book of Ephesians reveals the incredible story of God's plan to bring salvation to all people through Jesus Christ and unite them into one family. In this 13-week series, we'll discover what it means to live with purpose as people who have been chosen, redeemed, and called by God. Along the way, we'll explore how the Holy Spirit transforms our everyday relationships—with family, friends, the Church, and the world around us. Ephesians is an invitation to step into God's greater story and live the kind of life we were created for.

The world has never been more connected, yet so many people are still profoundly alone. In week three of The Gospel According to Jesus, we explore how Jesus didn't come to create isolated believers, but a new family marked by love, reconciliation, and shared life. This message is an invitation to move beyond attending church and step into the kind of community that makes the Gospel visible to the world.Check out the sermon on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or bridge.tv/sermons.To support this ministry and help us continue our God given mission, click here: http://bit.ly/2NZkdrCSupport the show

Every fourth Sunday for the past few months, we have had a side series, “Thank God for Work”; where we interview members about the work they do and how it fits into faith. The bible begins with God at work and this simple truth is vital to any Christian understanding of work. Before our work can become faithful, fruitful, or free we must see and receive God's work. Listen as Dave unpacks this in the first sermon in our new series on work.

MAIN IDEA: God rescues dead sinners by grace alone, through faith, and raises them to a new life designed for good works for His Glory. 4 POINTS 1.- The "Dead" State (vv. 1-3) 2.- The "But God" Turning Point (vv. 4-7) 3.- The Nature of Salvation (vv. 8-9) 4.- The Purpose of Salvation (v. 10)

Ephesians 2:1-101 As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, 2 in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. 3 All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our flesh and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature deserving of wrath. 4 But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, 5 made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. 6 And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, 7 in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. 8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. 10 For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

Unity. It's something we can often take for granted, but here in Ephesians it's front and centre as one of the most precious consequences of the gospel. Come and explore it with us!

Today, as we come to Philippians 2:12-13, we move from theexample of Christ to the everyday experience of the Christian life. Paul hasjust shown us the humility and obedience of Jesus Christ. Now he tells us howthat same mind of Christ is to be lived out in us. Listen to these powerfulwords in verses 12 and 13: “Therefore, my beloved, as you have alwaysobeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work outyour own salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who works in you bothto will and to do for His good pleasure.” Theword “therefore” connects this passage to everything Paul has just saidabout Jesus Christ. Because Christ humbled Himself, obeyed the Father, and gaveHimself for us, we are now to live differently. Paul begins by calling thePhilippians “my beloved.” Oh, what tenderness and affection are found in thesewords from Paul. He loved these believers. Even from prison, his heart was withthem. Thenhe says, “As you have always obeyed.” Obedience is one of the clearestevidences of genuine salvation. Remember, Jesus said in John 14:15, “If youlove Me, keep My commandments.” My friend, true faith always bringsobedience into our lives. As you continue through this verse, Paul wanted theirobedience to continue whether he was present or absent. They were to live forthe approval of God, not for the approval of men. They were to live for thepleasure of God. That is a challenge for all of us today. Sometimes we do rightonly when others are watching. But mature Christianity is doing right when noone is watching because we know God is watching. ThenPaul gives this command: “Work out your own salvation with fear andtrembling.” Now this verse has often been misunderstood. Paul is not sayingthat we work for our salvation. Salvation is by grace through faith. Ephesians2:8-9 says, “For by grace are you saved through faith; and that not ofyourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.” Paulis writing to believers who are already saved. The phrase “work out” meansto bring to completion, to carry something to its intended result. It was usedof working a field or mining out valuable ore. The idea is this: God has placedHis life within you, and now He wants that life expressed through you. Howimportant is this? Salvation is not merely something we possess; it issomething that transforms us daily. The Christian life is not about tryingharder in our own strength. It is about cooperating with what God has alreadyworked within us. Then Paul says we are to do this “with fear andtrembling.” That is not fear of losing our salvation. It is reverence, awe,and seriousness before a holy God. It is recognizing the incredible privilegeand responsibility of belonging to Jesus Christ.  Sowhy should we take the Christian life seriously? Verse 13 gives the answer: “Forit is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.” Nowthis is an amazing truth. The Christian life is not merely imitation; it isincarnation. Christ lives in us through the Holy Spirit. God works in us beforeHe works through us. The word “works” here is related to the word fromwhich we get our English word “energy.” God energizes the believer fromwithin. He gives us the desire to obey Him and the power to obey Him.  Aswe look at this passage of Scripture, Philippians 2:13 reminds us that we arenever alone in the Christian life. God is actively at work within us. Maybetoday you feel weak, discouraged, or spiritually dry. Remember this: if youbelong to Jesus Christ, God has not abandoned you. He is still working in you.Sometimes His work is slow and hidden, but He never stops shaping His children.Like a sculptor chiseling stone, God patiently removes what does not belong inus, and He forms Christ within us. Remember Romans 8:29 says that we arepredestined “to be conformed to the image of His Son.” God's goal for our livesis to make us like Jesus Christ. 

Ephesians 2:11-15 11 Therefore, remember that formerly you who are Gentiles by birth and called “uncircumcised” by those who call themselves “the circumcision” (which is done in the body by human hands)— 12 remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near by the blood of Christ. 14 For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, 15 by setting aside in his flesh the law with its commands and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new humanity out of the two, thus making peace,

We continue our series in Ephesians!

Ephesians explodes with treasures of truth in every chapter. Paul's description of our blessings in Christ Jesus will stir our hearts to worship him (1:3-14). His exposition of God's amazing grace in raising us from death to life will humble us and move us toward devotion and ministry (2:1-10). Paul's vision of the church—a new society united by Christ and under Christ that causes cosmic creatures to stand in awe (3:1-13)—will strengthen our commitment to God's people. The gifts Christ gives to his church for ministry will strengthen our ministry—to one another and to the world (4:7-16). The book is full of precious promises and radical grace. We study it to strengthen our love for Christ, for one another, and for all who are yet to hear of Christ's grace.This week we are in Ephesians 2:19-22.Life Church exists to glorify God by making disciples who treasure Christ, grow together, and live on mission.
