Ephesians 2:4-10
Rev. Chad Brewer
At times God’s Word puts an emphasis on passivity. We are told that we cannot work or earn God’s merit or salvation. Jesus tells us to find rest for our souls in Him. But other times, God calls us to rise up, to bring great effort, and to get to work, to do good works. In Sunday’s sermon God’s Word tells us to both stop working and to start working.
