Ephesians: The Magna Carta Wk. 6: Jeremiah Lepasana | “Unnatural Ties": The Need for Reconciliation Ephesians 4.1-7

In Ephesians we see that a church is full of people that do not naturally belong together.We arrive and participate in this community bringing with us different worldviews—narratives about how the world works—and personal experiences that make it easy for us to feel overlooked and neglected.Therefore, a church must allow God's boundless love, spoken about in Ephesians 3, to transform our most visceral reflexes—of arrogance, harsh-ness, and impatience—towards others and lean into supernatural resources marked by humility, gentleness, and patience. When this happens, we live out of a countercultural reality of a people with a bias toward reconciliation.
