Ephesians 3

Ephesians 3

Today Mary Crosby walks us through Ephesians 3! Paul reveals that God's plan all along was to bring Jews and Gentiles together as one family through Christ. He prays that believers would be rooted in God's love, know the immeasurable love of Christ, and be filled with the fullness of God—trusting Him in the moment because He is able to do immeasurably more than we could ask or imagine, and His Holy Spirit is in us, empowering us.

What Humans Meant for Harm, God Used for Good (Genesis 48-50)

Today we're finishing the book of Genesis! In chapters 48–50, Jacob blesses his sons before he dies, and Joseph reassures his brothers that although they meant evil against him, God meant it for good. Genesis ends with God's people still waiting for His promises to be fulfilled. As we wrap up the book, we're also reflecting on the themes we've seen throughout Genesis: God's faithfulness, His sovereignty, and His redemption, His definition of Good and Evil, and our sin. Through it all, we've been learning to trust God in the moment.

Trusting God in the Moment (Genesis 45-47)

In Genesis 45–47, Joseph reveals his identity to his brothers, offering forgiveness instead of revenge and recognizing God's sovereign hand in every part of his story. Emily and Anna dive in to how these chapters remind us that even when we can't see the full picture, God is always at work—inviting us to trust Him in the moment.

What is Your Life Reflecting? (Ephesians 2)

Mary Crosby takes us through Ephesians 2 today! In this part of his letter to the church in Ephesus, Paul reminds us that we were spiritually dead because of our sin, but God, in His great mercy, made us alive with Christ. We are saved by grace through faith—not by our own works—and created for good works. Because every one of us is equally in need of God's grace, no one deserves it more than another. The gospel not only brings us into relationship with God, but also unites us with one another as the body of Christ. MC dives into what these truths mean for us today.

Condemnation vs. Conviction (Genesis 42-44)

The story is getting good! Joseph is finally reunited with his brothers, but they don’t recognize him. He goes through a series of tests with them to see if they have changed since they left him for dead.
