8.3.25 Midweek Gathering - Identity Crises Pt. 12

In Ephesians 5, Paul calls us to live out the new identity we’ve received in Christ. Following the flow of chapter 4, he shows us that walking with Jesus means putting off the “old clothes” of bitterness, impurity, and destructive words, and putting on the “new clothes” of love, purity, and gratitude.

This message will unpack three powerful principles: loving even when it hurts, living with purity, and carefully choosing words that build instead of break. True love isn’t convenient or self-serving—it costs something. Purity isn’t about rules—it’s about living out who you are as a child of God. And our words, whether careless or grateful, carry the power to shape lives.

Join us as we discover how to walk in love, holiness, and thanksgiving—living as a “fragrant offering” that pleases God and reflects His light in a dark world.
