A New Humanity
Today we welcome back Pastor Kevin Murphy The sermon for this Sunday is based on Paul’s letter to the Ephesians. Pr. Kevin Murphy will focus specifically on Ephesians 2:11-22. These passages provide a warning from the apostle Paul, and it’s not just for Gentiles and Jews, but the entire human family. The call of Ephesians 2:11–22 is basically a summoning of all people to live together as children of one parent. If God is the parent of all humanity, polarization in all its forms is something to be avoided.
