The more we come to know Jesus, the more we become like Jesus. One of the marks of a person whose identity is rooted in Christ is that he or she will increasingly live in a way that displays the beauty of Christ to others. As we continue our sermon series on identity, we will look at the first half of Ephesians 5. Building on some of the themes that Robby unpacked for us last week, we will consider what the Apostle Paul says about imitating Christ's example in our own lives.
As you prepare, I invite you to read through Ephesians 5:1-20. As you read these words, prayerfully ask the Lord to shine His light into your heart to reveal areas where He is calling you to change and to show you new ways in which He may be calling you to place your hope in Jesus alone, display Christ as beautiful, and bring the joy of the Lord to our city and our world.
