Love Works: Sweet Spot

Preacher: Joe Walser Series: Love Works Scripture: Ephesians 5:1–5

Walk in LOVE
- Ephesians 5:2
- Ephesians 3:17-19

What's in the Box?
"The webbing together of God, humans, and all creation in justice, fulfillment, and delight is what the Hebrew prophets call shalom. We call it peace, but it means far more than mere peace of mind or a cease-fire between enemies. In the Bible, shalom means universal flourishing, wholeness, and delight—a rich state of affairs in which natural needs are satisfied and natural gifts fruitfully employed, a state of affairs that inspires joyful wonder as its Creator and Savior opens doors and welcomes the creatures in whom He delights.”

Peace happens in the house of God dwelling with God
- Ephesians 2:14, 19-22
Peace happens in the activity of worship Worshipping God
- Ephesians 1:12, 14
When we worship peace leads to transformation....becoming/imitating what we worship
