Welcome to this episode of our podcast, where we dive deeper into the book of Ephesians with Pastor Rick in part two of our sermon series. In this episode, we explore a question that many people struggle with: how can we understand the events of our lives and the world around us?
Pastor Rick begins by sharing a personal story about an art contest he participated in as a child and how it taught him a valuable lesson about frustration and disappointment. From there, he delves into the topic of salvation and how it comes only through personal faith in Jesus Christ, not through good deeds, church attendance, or charity work.
Using King David's words about God's forgiveness, Pastor Rick reminds us that God's motives for redemption were to show grace and make Jesus Christ the center of everything. He discusses the step of possession, where believers become God's possession through the Holy Spirit, according to God's plan from before creation.
Throughout the sermon, Pastor Rick emphasizes the importance of understanding our worth in God's eyes and how we are not our own, but rather have been purchased with a valuable price. He encourages listeners to awaken a commitment to glorify God in their bodies at present and offers a prayer of thanks and a reminder to give offerings to God.
So, if you've ever struggled with understanding the events of your life or your worth in God's eyes, this episode is for you. Join us as we explore these topics and learn how to deepen our faith in Christ.
