Jesus First: A Study on EphesiansSample
Discover
Each one of us has a part to play in the body of Christ. You likely have recognized this by now. If you feel that readings have been a bit repetitive, that’s on purpose. It’s not just this plan that repeats these ideas, but the Bible itself. Paul repeats this idea in most, if not all of his epistles, so it must be a rather crucial concept.
Learn
You have your own part to play, we know that. Don’t get caught up in the gifts you don’t have, but rather see how you can aid those who have different gifts. Our passage talks about the uniqueness in the foot and the eye’s role in the body. They do completely different things and have different roles, but they help each other reach a common goal of taking a well-informed step forward as a body.
Apply
Today or tomorrow, make an effort to have a conversation with a close friend or relative about spiritual gifts. What do they think yours is? What do you think theirs is?

About this Plan
There is no greater joy in life than one with Jesus first. The book of Ephesians teaches us that the gospel unites and motivates us to live for Christ. Through Christ's sacrifice, we receive God's love, forgiveness, and deliverance. This new identity in Christ calls us to imitate Him in all aspects of our lives, including our relationships and our battle against the darkness in the world.
