Listen to the last episode:
You are blessed!
What a phenomenal promise in Scripture. But the blessing is probably not in what you are thinking.
In Ephesians 1:3–14, the Apostle Paul declares a staggering truth: every spiritual blessing we receive from God is found and fulfilled in Jesus Christ.
In this Christ-centered Bible teaching, we explore what it truly means to be “blessed” and how our blessing is not in something but in Someone (Jesus).
As we step into a new year filled with noise, busyness, and distraction, this passage calls believers back to the supreme focus of the Christian life: delighting in Christ, resting in what He has already accomplished, and living for the praise of His glorious grace.
If you want to grow spiritually, understand your identity in Christ, and anchor your life in the unshakable blessings of the gospel, this study from Ephesians will reorient your heart and mind around the preeminence, majesty, and glory of Jesus Christ.
