How did we get here?

Finding "God"

“In the Bible, PEACE or 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. Shalom, in other words, is the way things ought to be.”


Ephesians 2:14
Ephesians 1:3, 5-6
Ephesians 3:17-19

1. Peace
2. Grace
3. Love

Ephesians 6:23-24


ἀφθαρσία, ας f: a continuous state or process, with the implication that the state or process in question is not interrupted by death—‘unceasing, always, eternally, undying.’ ἡ

“UNSTOPPABLE, EVEN DEATH CANNOT STOP IT!”

Ephesians 6:23-24

When this majestic and awesome God lives in the heart we are: Unshakable, Immovable, Undisturbable, Unfrettable, Fearless, Impervious to Anxiety, Untouchable, Impenetrable, Immune to Foreboding. Resistant to Anxiety, Indifferent to Evil Tidings. Unruffled by Criticism, Heedless to False Accusation, Oblivious to Public Opinion Polls… - Eric Ludy


How did we get here?

How Did We Get Here?

The highest science, the loftiest speculation, the mightiest philosophy, which can ever engage the attention of a child of God, is the name, the nature, the person, the work, the doings, and the existence of the great God whom he calls his Father. - Spurgeon
