Ephesians: The Magna Carta Wk. 11: Jeremiah Lepasana | “Households of Beauty": Ephesians 5.21-6.9

This past Sunday we covered Ephesians 5.21-6.9 famously known as the "Household Codes."And the headline was this: households are 1) communities of interdependence (not always related by blood) 2) living as a Jesus counter-culture 3) intentionally and organically cultivating beauty.Households can live as a Jesus counter-culture by first, relinquishing power in a culture obsessed with hierarchy and second, bearing the interest of others in a culture that idolizes autonomy and individuality.This topic feels like an important one! Andy Crouch recently wrote, "If you are looking for a single proximate cause of loneliness that is epidemic in our world, it is the dearth of households." Would we be a church that seeks to form flourishing Christ-centered households across NYC.
