De brief van Paulus aan de Efeziërs 2:6

They drain your joy, eat up your time, and rain on your parade—but there’s a better way to view difficult people. Let’s learn how to heal the relationships that suck the life out of us. Get ready for God to do His life-giving work when you start this new Life.Church Bible Plan to accompany Pastor Craig Groeschel’s message series, Relational Vampires . 

These are unprecedented times for those of us who are alive on planet earth at this moment. Historically, we can find hope if we turn to the One who made it all and is Lord of all. What does the Bible say about why these things happen, what is God’s response to it, and what is my hope in life and death?

Are you experiencing a wilderness season, finding no water or oasis for your soul? What if this season held the greatest hope of all: to know God’s Presence intimately, authentically, and passionately? This devotional encourages you that this time is not wasted, though some days you feel as if you are going nowhere. Because no matter what terrain you tread, God is journeying with you as Comforter, Life-giver, & Friend.

I Efeserbrevet skriver Paulus med et stort språk om nåden og frelsen. Dette gjennomsyrer hele brevet. Paulus kommer hele tiden tilbake til nåden og frelsen. Han snakker tydelig om at det finnes et FØR og et ETTER. Det er dette vi skal lese om, og se nærmere på i denne leseplanen.
