Ephesians 2:10

For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

From Background Notes [BN] for Feb 20th & 21st written by Pastor Bob Brown:

As we continue our study of the Church in Ephesians, our emphasis this week climaxes with Paul’s image of the Church as a “temple” or “building,” consisting of a full range of human persons, integrated and framed into the place where God chooses to live.



Put simply, we are persons “built together” so that God may be at home among us. The idea of God-in-a-place holds mystery and promise. Where can God possibly situate Himself, since He fills the created world with his presence? Ancient Israel grappled with this perplexity when the decision was made to construct a brick-and-mortar Temple during the reign of King Solomon. [BN,1]

Join us this week in Worship, Praise and Celebration at C1:
* Saturday 6:00pm
* Sunday 8:30am & 11:15am
* Family Xperiance (FX) 10am
