UNSHACKLED: A study in the Book of Ephesians SESSION 3

Small Group Question, 1st Break: If new members in your group, take a few moments each to introduce one another. What stood out to you from week 2’s Scripture memory verse? Take a moment to share one or two takeaways God revealed to you in Ephesians 2.

FOUNDATIONS (REVIEW): 1. Tone- Healthy correct tone is critical 2. Faith- Confident expectation/trust 3. Role of Holy Spirit and the Scriptures

Big Picture of Ephesians (REVIEW): Two Clear Segments: Trusting in the truths of the first makes possible the actions and lifestyle of the second!

GOD’S WILL FOR US: -RESTORING US TO HIM -GIVING US THE SPIRIT TO EXPERIENCE LIFE WITH HIM -EMPOWER US WITH THE SPIRIT TO REPRESENT HIM

EPHESIANS CH 2 OVERVIEW: V 1-10 Graciously transformed from Death to Life V 11-22 Transformed from Disunity to Unity

gRACE- Deeper than we can ever imagine Grace- "…just a shorthand way of speaking about the personal and loving kindness out of which, ultimately, God gives himself.” Delighting in the Trinity

gRACE- Deeper than we can ever imagine Grace- God’s unmerited gift that gives us everything we need to become a child of God. Grace gives us all of the acceptance, status, love and affection that the Father has for Jesus to us. We become as valued to God as Jesus. This is permanent and will not change based upon anything we do.

gRACE! Grace- unmerited favor. But also, access to unmerited power that grows us up and closer to Him! But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” James 4:6 Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Hebrews 4:16

CHRIST + ANYTHING = THE DEEP ROOTED LIE Legalism/Manmade Religion/Earning It/Paying It Back- Anything other than the Gospel of Jesus Christ that I would depend upon to feel better about myself in the eyes of God. Investment in my merit to merit something from God.

COMMITMENT: 1. Showing up each week you are in town 2. Being In The Word Daily/Scripture Memory 3. Writing Down What God Reveals to You

Small Group Questions: What stood out today that helps you get your arms around this foundational topic of God’s Grace? How does having an ever-expanding view of God’s rich character change the way we relate to Him on a moment by moment basis?
