Series Discussion - Go, wk. 3

Our scripture this week is from one of Paul's letters to the church of Ephesus, where he continues to guide and disciple them, encouraging them to keep going with The Great Commission. There are many ways you can engage in conversation around this passage, and we encourage you to take our discussion example and intentionally examine scripture and share your observations with others. Pastors Mara, Paul, and Josh share their thoughts on Ephesians 6:10-18, with an emphasis on verses 12 and 18. This "battle" we're facing isn't against others. It's against the darkness within ourselves. But unfortunately, we often mistake our culture and understanding for what Christianity is, and when we apply those cultural, personal interpretations to scripture, it's possible to miss what the Word is actually saying. The good news is, if we consistently pray "not my will, Your will" it shifts our perspective, and can totally change the way we approach every situation, every struggle, every battle, from its focus on what others are doing, to a focus on our own relationship with God, and seeing people the way God sees them. Choose your weapons carefully!
