The Ephesian congregation was a diverse group of Jews and Gentiles, united together in Messiah. They experienced many blessings in their own lives and definitely had an impact on the first century world in which they lived. But the Rabbi was not just writing to that local group. What is Paul saying to us?

Covers such topics as the Jewish background of baptism, redemption and early worship services. Also addresses the relationship of Jews and non-Jews who form the messianic community. Likewise, practical ways to apply our faith to marriage, parenting and careers.
