Imitating Jesus – Relationships Transformed

Speaker:
Series:
Passage: Ephesians 5:15-6:9
Service Type:

So often, we settle for “good enough” in our lives. But God never meant for us to live “good enough” lives – He calls us his “Masterpiece” and He seeks to do immeasurably more in our lives than we could ever ask for or think of. As a church, Grace Community hopes to be a place of God’s immeasurable love, joy, peace, and grace. Join us on Sundays in this study of Paul’s letter to the Ephesians as we discover how to live more fully and deeply in God’s “Immeasurably More”.

We would like to stay connected to you!

We encourage you to spend some time with God this week, dive into the Bible, and go a bit deeper on this topic. Please consider these study questions for further reflection:

Question 1
Read Ephesians 5:15- 33. Ephesians 5:15 tells us to be careful of how we live - making the most of every opportunity. Think of the opportunities God has provided for you in the past and give Him thanks. What opportunities is He placing in front of you today? How will you respond?

Question 2
Many of us have prayed (are praying) for the Lord to show us His will - "Where should I live?", "Should I take this job?", "Who should I marry?"... This is all good, but in Ephesians 5:18, the Lord reveals his will for us - to "be filled with the Spirit." (Greek = "continually be filled") How are we filled with the Spirit? Are you filled with the Spirit? What does this mean to you?

Question 3
Being filled with the Spirit transforms our hearts. Verses 19-20 speak of singing and making music from our hearts and to be filled with joy and thanksgiving. Have you experienced the joy and thanksgiving of being filled with the Spirit? What is that like?

Question 4
Read Philippians 2:3-8. When we are filled with the Spirit, we take on the mindset (attitude) of Christ - humility, sacrifice, love and submission. Ephesians 5:21-33 speaks of what it looks to have that mindset in our relationships. How is this displayed in your life and relationships?

Additional scriptures to explore: Ephesians 5:15-33, Ephesians 5:1, Philippians 2:3-8, Ephesians 4:2-3, Galatians 3:28, continued our series Immeasurably More this week which is focusing on the book of Ephesians.
