And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.

What does it mean to be "chosen" by God? Where is the line between rightful self-sacrifice and harmful self-erasure? In this final episode of our Ephesians series, we tackle these profound spiritual questions sent in by our listeners.After 58 conversations unpacking the treasures of this extraordinary letter, we're moved by the thoughtful engagement of our global community. It has been truly moving to read from listeners how this exploration of Paul's letter has transformed their understanding of scripture and enriched their lives. In this episode, we take up a few questions and review the journey together.The first question we take up concerns the true nature of sacrifice and leads us to challenge the false dichotomy between standing for truth and sacrificial love. Drawing from our own painful experiences of burnout, we distinguish between genuine Christ-like sacrifice and misguided martyrdom. True sacrifice never abandons truth but risks everything for it—not from weakness or acquiescence but from spiritual strength. Sometimes the most loving action might be caring for your body and soul so you can serve sustainably rather than dramatically burning out.We then dive into another question concerning the mystery of being "chosen" from Ephesians 1:4. Rather than an exclusive club of the predestined, we explore how all humans are "pre-purposed" in Christ from before creation. The Father has drawn all humanity to Christ, though not everyone recognizes this presence in their consciousness. This understanding honors both divine initiative and human freedom, respecting the unique spiritual journey each soul undertakes.Some of the most powerful moments come when we acknowledge how Christ works through people of different faiths or no faith at all—whenever forgiveness, compassion, or self-sacrifice manifests in human life. The divine choosing includes our freedom to choose in return, a necessary component of spiritual maturity and authentic relationship with God.Join us for this rich conversation that brings our Ephesians journey to a meaningful close, complete with a musical surprise from one of our listeners!Support the showThe Light in Every Thing is a podcast of The Seminary of The Christian Community in North America.

Christ's light seeks to shine in the most unexpected places—even in the complex, often uncomfortable power imbalances in human relationships. As Jonah and Patrick conclude their study of Ephesians, they explore how Paul's wisdom reaches its culmination in addressing “masters” and “bond-servants,” revealing a revolutionary approach to transforming unjust systems from within.This conversation doesn't shy away from difficult truths. They acknowledge how these passages in the Bible have been misused throughout history to justify slavery and oppression—a painful example of how scripture itself can become weaponized by evil forces. Just as the devil quoted scripture to tempt Jesus in the wilderness, those seeking to maintain power have twisted these words to serve their ends.Yet within these same verses lies an extraordinary subversion. Paul instructs servants to obey earthly masters, but then radically reframes their identity as "bondservants of Christ." The Greek word "doulos" represents not degradation but the highest calling—to be in service to God. This establishes a dignity no earthly circumstance can diminish. Meanwhile, masters are reminded they too serve the same Lord, creating a spiritual equality that undermines the very system of inequality they inhabit.This "surrendered sabotage" mirrors transformative movements like the American Civil Rights movement, where dignity and nonviolent resistance revealed injustice without adopting the destructive methods of the oppressors. Like yeast working through dough, this approach changes systems from within by living according to a higher order while still working and living within the current one.The episode concludes where the whole series began: with Paul's armor of God—spiritual weapons for this different kind of battle. Join us in discovering how Christ's light transforms the world, not through destruction, but by cultivating a new kingdom within it, one heart at a time.Support the showThe Light in Every Thing is a podcast of The Seminary of The Christian Community in North America.

In this deep and lively conversation, Patrick and Jonah continue their journey through Paul's Letter to the Ephesians, entering chapter 6 — the passage addressing children, parents, and the challenge of obedience. Together they explore the profound tension and mystery in Paul's words about submission, obedience, and how they can easily be misused or distorted into oppressive tools. At the same time, they consider how obedience can be transformed and transfigured through Christ into a liberating path of love, discernment, and freedom.Drawing on personal experiences as fathers and priests, Patrick and Jonah reflect on moments of healthy authority, rightful correction, and also times when children (and all of us) must discern when voices are not “in the Lord.” The discussion expands into themes of generational inheritance, the role of parents in blessing the earth, and the deeper spiritual call to hear and follow the true voice of God — which may come through others but ultimately lives in the listening heart.Themes DiscussedIntroduction to Ephesians 6: The closing exhortations before the “armor of God” passage.The continuity of the theme of submission and ordering oneself rightly — in families, communities, and before Christ.The radical equality in Paul's new vision: children, wives, and bondservants are all addressed directly as fellow members of Christ's body.The nuanced meaning of obedience “in the Lord” — not blind rule-following, but discerning and heeding true words of life.Parenting experiences: moments of both failure and grace in bringing up children in the “instruction of the Lord.”The danger of obedience distorted into tyranny and the church's historical complicity in oppression.The role of listening (shema) in Jewish and Christian traditions — as deeply connected to the will and the path of freedom.Children (and all of us) learning to test the spirits and to recognize what is truly good and true.Reflections on generational burdens and blessings — breaking patterns to offer freedom to the next generation.The Prodigal Son as a lens for parenting adult children and trusting the Lord of destiny.Key ScriptureEphesians 6:1-4 — Children, obey your parents in the Lord…John 8:12 — I am the light of the world…The Shema (Deuteronomy 6:4) — Hear, O Israel…Luke 15: The Prodigal Son — referenced as a parable of trust and freedom.Closing ThoughtsPatrick and Jonah close with wonder at the figure of Christ Jesus as the one who listens and obeys the Father perfectly — revealing true obedience as something rooted in love, freedom, and the pursuit of the good and true. This vision offers a path beyond oppressive systems into the joyful responsibility of becoming listeners and doers of the Word.Next episode will continue into the more challenging and provocative passage regarding bondservants and masters, exploring the radical implications of Paul's message for unjust systems and relationships.Support the showThe Light in Every Thing is a podcast of The Seminary of The Christian Community in North America.

After a remarkable more than year-long journey exploring Paul's letter to the Ephesians, we're pausing to create space for your voice. This brief but important episode invites our listening community to reflect on the extensive series we've created together and share questions that remain as we prepare to conclude our study.Our exploration of Ephesians has traversed complex theological terrain, particularly when we encountered Chapter 5's challenging passages. These sections contain some of the most frequently misinterpreted verses in Christian history—texts that should nurture community but have often been weaponized instead. Throughout our series, we've sought to uncover the authentic Christ-centered message behind these words while acknowledging the harmful ways they've sometimes been understood.What questions linger for you? Which insights transformed your understanding? How has this journey through Ephesians resonated with your spiritual life? Whether you're a longtime listener or recently discovered our podcast, we welcome your voice. Visit patreon.com/ccseminary to submit an audio question or written comment by May 17, 2025. Selected questions will be addressed in upcoming episodes as we prepare to wrap up this profound journey through one of Christianity's most impactful letters. Your perspective matters to us—we can't wait to hear how Ephesians has spoken to you.Support the showThe Light in Every Thing is a podcast of The Seminary of The Christian Community in North America.

Braeden Jensen is a Mental Health Counselor and previously worked as a full-time Seminary teacher. Spending seven years in a high school classroom opened his eyes to a number of things. It changed his ability to listen and sharpened his aptitude for empathy. The more he sat with and listened to students, the more he saw and felt how many people are hurting in very real ways. At the same time, Braeden considered how therapy had helped him find hope and healing. The puzzle pieces quickly came together: "You can help more people in some tangible, substantial ways." After pursuing his Clinical Mental Health Counseling degree, he recently left the classroom full-time to find more fulfillment in helping others enjoy freedom, peace, and healing. He loves seeing people overcome trauma, depression, anxiety, and addiction, and heal their relationships along the way.
