I’ll walk through a 6 week study of the Book of Ephesians beginning October 2nd at Grace Fellowship. I’ll not cover each chapter entirely, but will take a key passage out of each chapter and preach on that passage.
We’re asking each Life Group to base their weekly discussion on our study in Ephesians for 6 weeks. Group discussion should include responses to the Sunday message, but is not limited to that as we’ll be reading an entire chapter from Ephesians each week. We’ll provide Group Leaders with questions, suggestions and helps for this time together.
Whether you’re in a Life Group or not, we’re asking that you read the same chapter in Ephesians each day of the week – prior to the Sunday message. For example: prior to October 2nd, read Ephesians 1 each day of the week leading up to October 2nd. Then follow the same process for the other chapters. Dates for reading are at the end of this blog.
Please reflect on the chapter you read, take notes of how God spoke to you as you read with the way(s) you need to apply what you read, and/or write down questions to discuss in your group. If you’re not in a group, take 15-30 minutes at some point during the week to discuss your reflections with your spouse, family or a friend.
I suggest you use the ENSPEC bookmarks we’ve passed out many times to aid you in asking good questions and applying the passage to your life. If you do not have an ENSPEC bookmark, please go to the following link for help. https://bjrutledge.com/2015/07/09/helps-for-having-a-time-alone-with-god/
