How He Loves | Ephesians Part 1
About This Message
Speaker: David Reneau
Summary:
In 2002, a young man named Stephen Coffey prayed a bold prayer before tragically passing away in a car accident that very night: "I’d give my life today if it would shake the youth of the nation." Moved by that heartbreak, his friend John Mark McMillan penned the song "How He Loves," capturing the overwhelming, relentless nature of God's grace.
In this message, we kick off our new series, Ephesians: Heaven Meets Earth, by looking at how God's love and grace redefine our lives. We explore our position as God's masterpiece (poiema), the mystery of unity in Christ, and how heaven isn't just a distant destination, but what we are sent to bring here.
In this message, we discuss:
The background of the song "How He Loves" and the depth of God's affection for us.
How God chose us before creation to be holy and blameless in His sight through love.
The rich meaning of being God's masterpiece (poiema) created for good works.
How the church displays God's manifold wisdom to the world.
Why heaven is not just where we're going, but what we are sent to bring here.
