Ephesians: Trinitarian Prayer

I am currently preaching through the book of Ephesians, and have just finished what is most preachers' favorite section 1:3-14. A 202 word sentence in the Greek, these verses lay out the gospel as planned by the Father, accomplished by the Son and applied by the Spirit. Thus, I decided to spend 3 sermons focusing on the work of the Father, of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. It is not exhaustive, but I pray it was faithful to the important points of the text. If interested, find the audio below:

Ephesians 1:3-6 - Blessing Father

Ephesians 1:7-12 - In Christ Alone

Ephesians 1:13-14 - Spirit Guaranteed

[Also also introduced the study with a sermon on Ephesians 1:1-2 called "Introductions are in Order"]
