The Epistle to the Ephesians did not fall out of heaven and land in the leather bound libraries that we call Bibles. It was a letter written by Paul to a group of his friends. Friends who were trying to figure out what life looked like in the new creation reality of their new found humanity in Christ Jesus. And that letter has been preserved for us.  

It's easy to miss that. We often read and study Paul's letters as though they were something other than just that, letters. We spend months dissecting them and in so doing run the risk of missing the forest for sake of the trees. In this, the last teaching of our five month walk through Ephesians, Dr. Adrian Smith leads us to lean against that tendency and experience Paul's letter to the disciples in Ephesus as it was intended to be experienced.
