Reformed Expository Bible Study - Ephesians: The Glory of Christ in the Life of the Church
ISBN: 9781629958354In his letter to the Ephesians, Paul celebrates God's amazing grace that saves individuals, empowers the church, and, through both, reshapes the world. Although the forces around us may be antagonistic to the gospel, Christ is transforming all things for you and through you.
This Reformed Expository Bible Study gives groups and individuals thirteen lessons that focus on observing and understanding the text-making connections to the rest of the Bible and to Reformed theology. Lessons close with personal application and a prayer prompt.
This Reformed Expository Bible Study is designed for personal and group use. Each lesson connects to the rest of the Bible and holds to the same standards as the Reformed Expository Commentary series: a high view of Scripture; a Christ-centered focus; a Reformed theological basis; and an emphasis on personal application and prayer.
