Prayer for Power (Remastered)

Ephesians E1 — For a short summary of the beliefs, convictions, and mission of the Apostle Paul, it’s hard to do better than his letter to the Ephesians. In this first teaching of a five-part series, Tim focuses on a prayer in Ephesians 1:15-23, where Paul asks God to give the church in Ephesus power. But rather than victory over enemies or some other kind of dominating strength, the power Paul speaks of refers to the supernatural love and self-sacrifice Jesus demonstrated in his death and resurrection. Tim gave this message at Door of Hope Church in Portland, Ore., on September 29, 2013.
