In Christ, Ephesians 1:2-3. 3.05.2026, James di Castiglione
About this episode
James di Castiglione discusses how the church can reflect God's nature and overcome cultural challenges through prayer, witness, and service.
We the church are meant to reflect who God is. How can we do this? 1. Prayer 2. Witness 3 Proclaiming, loving and serving. How can we replace and overcome the opposition? Invest time to fill up on the oil of intimacy with Jesus. In Ephesus - the dominant worship was to the Goddess of Fertility - Artemis. We may be living in a simular culture where the God of money and sex dominates - but Jesus has blessed us with 'Every Spiritual Blessing'. How can we see things from heaven's perspective . We are chosen in Christ, destined for adoption. The foulest thing is cover by the blood of Jesus - He has done it all! We are IN HIM, and HE IS IN US!
