Get a Life! A Study of the book of Ephesians
Twenty-two lessons from the book of Ephesians. This series teaches Christians about relationships and unity. Paul begins with our relationship with God, in Christ and continues with a study of the unity of the church and relationships within the church. Christians are to have moral and loving relationships in society, as well as in marriage and family. The letter concludes with God's provision of "armor" for the Christian in dealing with Satan, who is the enemy of good relationships.
