S6 E10 | Ephesians Part 2: Understanding Grace and Good Works

In this episode of the Alabaster Jar Podcast, Dr. Lynn Cohick and Dr. Kelly Dippolito dive into part two of their four-part series exploring the book of Ephesians. They explore how Paul’s message redefines identity for both Jews and Gentiles, emphasizing the unearned gift of salvation and the transformative reality of being “seated with Christ.” They also correct some common misconceptions about works and grace, drawing on historical context to enrich your understanding of how Paul would’ve understood grace as he was writing to the Ephesian church.
