Ephesians 3:14-21

Sermon Theme: A prisoner like Paul did not seem to be an instrument of God’s power, but he prays a prayer that Christians do well to emulate. We can ask the Father for strength and learning through his Spirit in order to serve Christ in our life together as the church. As we gain a greater understanding of Christ’s love, we expand our capacity to love one another and glorify God.
