Past – Present – Future
Ephesians 2:1-17
God wants you to live today in His grace, in His victory, in His power, believing that yesterday is under the blood and tomorrow is hopeful because of Jesus Christ. He is the God of all time who is greater than our past, gives life in the present, and provides hope for the future!

What It Means to Be Rich
Ephesians 1:7, 18; 2:7; 3:8, 16
It is only through Christ that we can receive God's grace and understand His glory. In fact, every spiritual blessing is through Christ. May we all come back to the beautiful simplicity and yet the great sufficiency that is found in the person of Jesus Christ. He is where we find true riches!

Our Inheritance
Ephesians 1:15-23
If you're a Christian, you're rich! You may not be wealthy by the world's standards, but you have a family inheritance. You have the Father's resources now and His riches forevermore. Be sure you're part of the family of God through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

Blessings, Blessings, Blessings
Ephesians 1:3-14
This is our second day looking at God's "run on sentence." Why would He use this particular grammatical structure? Perhaps it's because we cannot fully describe the depths of what we have as members of the family of God. They are without end. In this single sentence we learn of the spiritual blessings received from the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

God’s Run-On Sentence
Ephesians 1:3-14
In Paul's language, Ephesians 1:3-14 is one continuous long sentence. The entire "run-on sentence" demonstrates that of all the spiritual blessings we have in Christ, the chief blessing is that we've been made part of the family of God! This long sentence begins with grace and ends with the glory of God.

Bless the Blesser
Ephesians 1:1-3
The introductory verses to Ephesians reveal the word "blessing" from two different directions. God pours out His blessings on us, and there is another blessing that we give back to Him. Regardless of our current circumstances, we always have reason to bless the Lord!

What A Book!
Ephesians 1:1-3
God doesn't want us to live empty! He wants us to live a full, overflowing, abundant life. Ephesians could be described as God "rolling out the red carpet" and introducing us to all the resources we have available in Jesus Christ. When we recognize our spiritual blessings in Christ we can see the fullness of God, get help for our home, and be empowered to have victory in spiritual battles!

All Spiritual Blessings
Ephesians 1:1-3
When we think of the blessings of God our minds often journey to tangible or temporal things. However, the greatest blessings are spiritual blessings. They meet our deepest needs and outlive this world. Let's consider the origin, nature, intent, and duration of ALL spiritual blessings as we begin this study in the book of Ephesians.

One Thing I Desire
Psalm 27:4
If you could have one thing today, what would it be? Our wants and desires reveal much about our heart for God. In this final episode of the "One Thing" series, we learn that David's one desire was to be near God. David describes this desire in three ways. Do you know what they are?

One Thing to Remember
2 Peter 3:8
The Lord said the one thing He wants us to remember is that time is nothing compared to eternity. Don't be ignorant of the fact that our choices during time will have eternal consequences when time is no more. Do what matters!

One Thing I Do
Philippians 3:12-16
Often it seems we live by lists because they are the only way to keep track of everything we have to do! But what is one task that is paramount to every Christian? Today we will hear that the pursuit of Christ isn't just another task on our to do list. He is the list!

One Thing I Know
John 9:25
There is much in life we do not know or understand, but God has a purpose in all things and He is at work in our lives. The blind man didn't know how or why Jesus healed Him, but he joyfully declared the one thing he did know. And that's what we must do! The one thing we know, that Christ has saved us, is the one thing we must make known.

One Thing Is Needful
Luke 10:38-42
We learn today about the one thing that Jesus said is needful. In a world where we are so often busy, let's discover together the one thing Jesus declares to be necessary. In this passage, Mary demonstrates the priority of worship.

One Answer
Luke 20:1-8
Authority. All areas of life require it, and we are called to make Christ the Authority of our lives. When He is not in control, we experience chaos and conflict. Are you courageous enough to ask God to reveal to you the one area where He is not on the throne of your life?

One Lack
Luke 18:18-23
The greatest "lack" or deficiency we have in this life is not material but physical. The rich young man in today's passage was unwilling to surrender his riches in exchange for the treasures of following Jesus. What's the one thing that prevents you from fully following Jesus?

One Question
Luke 6:1-9
In today's passage the religious leaders were actually angry that Jesus had healed a man because He did it on the Sabbath. Jesus asks them one question to reveal their sinful attitude. What one thing is God probing your heart about - trying to reveal to you? What's your "one thing?"

It’s Time to Carry the Letter!
Colossians 4:7-9
Letters were meant to be read and relayed. Thankfully, the letter of Philemon was passed on, and now it is our turn. All of us who have received the good news of forgiveness and restoration must now share it with someone else. Don't keep it to yourself...it's time to carry the letter!

Paying Your Debt
Philemon 1:18-19
What do you owe? WHO do you owe? We are the beneficiaries of so many spiritual riches through Christ. To have is to owe. Here are at least four people that we all owe...

A Divine Love Letter
Philemon 1:9-19
The great theme of the little letter of Philemon is love. It is not just human love, but divine. Consider today what this love does, what this love desires, what this love deserves, and what this love demands. God's love calls for a response.

From Debt to Credit
Philemon 1:18-19
Today we conclude the story of how one man went from living in debt (spiritually) to living on credit! Christ paid the sinners debt through His death at Calvary and makes a way so that we can live now on His good name. What a Savior!

From Sin to Righteousness
Philemon 1:17
Before salvation we are known by our sins, but after salvation we are identified with the righteousness of Christ. The Lord Jesus Christ took all of our sin at the cross and now we have the privilege to have His righteous record placed on our account.

From Servant to Brother
Philemon 1:16
There is a world of difference between being a servant and being a member of the family. One of the grandest things about salvation is the privilege that is ours to call God our Father. When we are born again we come into His family and become brothers and sisters in Christ.

From Lost to Saved
Philemon 1:15
"I once was lost but now I'm found" are some of the most powerful words from the famous hymn, Amazing Grace. To be lost is to be separated from God; to be saved is to be reconciled to God. Christ receives those who will come to Him and gives to them eternal life!

From Runaway to Received
Philemon 1:12-14
Sin moves us away from God's plan and purpose for our lives and it is natural for sinners to run from the Lord. Yet God knows how to find us! Hear the story of how a runaway was received back into fellowship and you will be reminded of the hope of the gospel.
