THE CONTEXT Paul wrote Ephesians while in prison, and therefore, had time to reflect and add theological/doctrinal detail. It makes one realize that God works his purposes in our lives through the good times and through the difficulties. Prison gave Paul the time he needed to give us a rich and thorough sense of what God has done for us through his Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.
INTRODUCTION “The opening section of Ephesians (1:3–2:10), which describes the new life God has given us in Christ, divides itself naturally into two halves, the first consisting of praise and the second of prayer. In the ‘praise’ half, Paul blesses God because He has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing (1:3–14); while in the ‘prayer’ half he asks that God will open our eyes to grasp the fullness of this blessing (1:15–2:10).” Observing Paul’s focused praise helps us approach the table of our Lord today.

Make the most of the TIME Ephesians 5
CONTEXT Ephesians was a cyclical letter that was to be sent to many churches in the area around Ephesus (southern Turkey). Paul wrote while in prison and therefore had time to add theological/doctrinal detail. The first half of the letter emphasizes the status of believers as “saved by grace not by works.” And because of that, now we (believers) are “In Christ”; a phrase Paul uses 34 times in Ephesians.
The latter half of the letter is encouragement/challenge to grow in maturity and live imitating Jesus during the “time/kairos” (verse 15).
INTRODUCTION Pooh logic
Maturity is the goal.
TIME is of the essence
“I am with you.” How is he with you?

August 5: Carpe Diem … Pro Agnus Dei Revelation 5
Revelation was written as a message of encouragement and exhortation to the seven churches of Asia sometime between 92 AD and 96 AD. Peter and Paul had been crucified and Timothy murdered by this time. Domitian was the Emperor, and he was requiring that the subjects of Rome worship him as Lord and God. They were required to go to the temple and state, “Ceasar is Lord.” Those who did not make this confession were punished and even killed. John had been arrested and exiled to the island of Patmos to work in the Roman quarries. This pressure, along with the many benefits of living under Roman rule, caused the need to see things as they really are. Therefore, God gave John the “Revelation.”

Don’t waste MY time!
Luke was written to remind us “all that Jesus began to do and to teach.” (Acts 1:1 ) Luke’s work is “from the beginning” (comprehensive) “carefully” done (accurate); and “orderly” (organized in a formal literary manner) (Luke 1:2). Luke’s goal in writing is to convince Theophilus (and us) of the truth and certainty of the person and work of Jesus!
Jesus uses this well-known parable as a means to respond to the challenge of a religious lawyer, who wants to discredit Jesus’s use of the Law of God. The lawyer’s challenge gives Jesus the opportunity to emphasize the kind of life that pleases God. Eternal Life (All Time) is given to those who live according to the Law of God, the Law of love.

JULY 15: Wait a Minute Mark 5:21-43
INTRODUCTION The gospel of Mark is split into two distinct sections. Mark 1-8 answers the question, “Who is Jesus?” Jesus asks his disciples in Mark 8:29: “Who do you say I am?” Therefore in one scenario after another leading up to that question, Jesus demonstrates who he is! Then in the remainder of Mark (9-16) it describes what Jesus, the Christ, came to do!
CONTEXT After commanding the storm (nature) to be still (Mark 4) and overcoming the Legion of demons (spiritual world) in the demoniac (Mark 5A) Jesus overwhelms the slow death of a woman and the early death of a little girl.

July 1: Paul: A Model of Christian Leadership Colossians 1:24-29
BACKGROUND “Concerning their genre, the Pauline letters are just that — highly personal letters written either to members of his mission teams or to the mission churches he had planted; and as personal letters, they reflect the style of the man and his times and circumstances.”
INTRODUCTION Colossae was a town in the Lycus Valley in what today is Turkey. The congregation in Colossae was founded by a disciple of Paul, Epaphras. This letter is personal and passionate while at the same time gives us some of the most profound insight into the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ. (Col. 1:15-20). Paul, though having never visited Colossae, feels a great burden for the congregation and does all he can to encourage and exhort this young congregation. I. Thank God for Influencers II. Paul’s goal as a servant/influencer! A. To make the word of God fully known. (Col. 3:16) B. To make the people of God fully mature
III. Christ in you … the hope of glory A. To live is Christ (Phil 1:21) B. To die is gain/heaven
IV. Maturity Requires Warnings and Teachings (2 Timothy 3:16) V. Fellowship in Christ’s Suffering and Toiling in God’s Power (Col. 2:12)

June 24: The Starting Point and The Finishing Place Matthew 16:13-19 INTRODUCTION Most of us in our memory bank have stored special places and special people that we associate with a marriage, a job, a first home, a school, or a significant accomplishment. These “first memories” are powerful reminders of experiences and people who shaped us. They are “grounding points” that keep us rooted in our past, faithful in our present, and hopeful in our future.
CONTEXT Jesus and his disciples have been busy! So, he takes them on a retreat. They go up a mountain with a vista of Caesarea Philippi and there the disciples are confronted with a crucial question from Jesus, “Who do you say that I am?” How they answer that question shapes their own identity and purpose in life. The same is true for you and me!
CONTENT #1 A. Identity vv13-16 *We discover who we are in light of who Jesus is!!! B. Who is Jesus? Acts 2:36, 4:12, Phil 2:9-11, Col 1:15-20 C. Who am I? vv17-18

Hey! Do you know who you are? Romans 8:1-2,12-22 14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. 15 For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!” 16 The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,17 and if children, then heirs — heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, (ESV) INTRODUCTION: This chapter is considered by many to be the “Mount Everest” of scripture. BACKGROUND: Romans was written by the Apostle Paul to the church in Rome, which he had never visited. Paul wrote with regards to the big picture — laying down the doctrine of salvation and its benefits. He desperately wants them to know the gospel of Christ, and it impacts their life.

June 3: The Courage to Take a Stand Daniel 1 INTRODUCTION It’s easy to take the “easy way” out! The only problem with that strategy is that sometimes the easy way is not the right way. How difficult it is to take a stand for a cause when most people are not willing to stand with you. It’s tempting to do what everyone else is doing and not only to follow the crowd but also to blend in with the crowd when we know that the destination is contrary to God’s desire. CONTEXT Daniel had been ripped away from his home in Jerusalem. He had been forced into exile in Babylon. Because of his immense intelligence and education, Daniel was given the opportunity to be “assimilated” into the culture of Babylon and the ways of King Nebuchadnezzar. All that Daniel had to do was to be willing to live just like everyone else. But such a compromise ran counter to his convictions as a follower of the Lord. He took a stand! CONTENT I. Daniel’s Life in Babylon B. God’s hand in history 1:2, 1:9, 1:17 (Is 39:6-7) C. Daniel’s “Stand” and refusal to take the “Easy Way” v8 The outcome vv15-17, 20-21 II.
