To study Ephesians 2 in a group
1. What it says
How does Paul describe what we were before and what God did for us (v. 1-5)?
2. What it means
Paul says we are saved by grace and created for good works (v. 8-10). How do these two things fit together?
3. How I live it
The chapter speaks of people once far off who are now near (v. 13-19). Whom could you draw near to today, with respect and kindness?
