ইফিষীয় 4:14-15

In this 3-day devotional, Eugene Peterson, the pastor-poet behind The Message Bible, imparts a glimpse of his compelling quest to discover not only how to be a pastor but how to be a human being. It is Peterson's journey to live and teach a life of congruence - between what we do and the way we do it, between what is written in Scripture and how we live out that truth.

This plan will explore what the letter of Ephesians can teach us in four areas. 1) WHO GOD IS: God’s character and nature 2) WHO WE ARE: the identity of humanity and/or believers 3) WHAT WE BELIEVE: core Christian doctrines 4) HOW WE LIVE: putting faith into action

Unity in a Divided World explores how unity in the body of Christ is not about uniformity but about celebrating our diverse gifts and backgrounds in love. Over four days, we will look at how Jesus prayed for our unity, why it is crucial, and how we can strive to maintain it in a world often marked by division.

This 4-day devotional, "The Church" invites believers to reflect on and live out the teachings of Ephesians 4. It challenges us to embody qualities that reflect Christ's transformative work: humility, gentleness, patience, unity, and love. Each day offers practical insights and applications for embracing our spiritual gifts, putting off the old self, growing in truth, and fostering forgiveness and compassion in our relationships. With scriptural grounding, thoughtful reflections, and heartfelt prayers, this devotional encourages believers to walk in a way that honors God and strengthens the body of Christ.
