Ephesians: Identity (Eph 1:1-2)

Paul, who was a religious terrorist and enemy of the early Christian church, had an encounter with Jesus while traveling to Damascus that transformed him and sent his life in a completely new direction. As we begin this series in the letter that Paul wrote to the Christian church is Ephesus, we ground ourselves in the grace and peace we can live in when we understand who God says we are. In this beloved identity, we can function in the world as a unified community who reflects God's love everywhere we go.
