Ephesians is one of my favorite books in Scripture … and I've been preaching through it for years.

In this episode, we step back and gain a broad 10,000 foot view of Paul's epistle to the Ephesians, the reason he wrote it, the context surrounding it, and important things to take notice of.

• Listen to my other New Testament book overviews (soon to be available on YouTube)
• Join me in my study of Ephesians via your favorite podcast platform or watch on YouTube

Over the past several episodes, we've talked about ways that will help you grow spiritually, deepen your intimacy with Jesus, and practically live the authentic Christian life.

If you want to grow spiritually and mature in your faith, then you need to start taking sin seriously.

In the final episode of this mini-series, Nathan talks about how putting away sin allows you to grow in your faith and deepen your spiritual life. He also gives several helpful ideas on how to take sin seriously and to turn from it and embrace God’s desire for your life—a life marked by godliness, righteousness, holiness, purity, and truth.
