Easter (including Pentecost) Themes: The gift of the Holy Spirit, empowerment, church mission
Believers and unbelievers alike often talk about the Church with a mixture of inspiration, dispassion
and repulsion. So what is the purpose of the Church? In this series on Ephesians, we will explore the
breathtaking scope of God’s purposes in Christ for the Church. It calls us to build bridges not
minefields. It challenges us to promote reconciliation not segregation. It charges us to maintain the
unity we already have. It also commands us to remain loyal to Jesus as the supreme power in our
lives and in the world. Join us for Becoming Who We Are in Christ.
