We talked a couple of weeks ago about worship and about one of the purposes for it and what it's about. And then Ephesians, one of the things that Paul brings out is he's like, this is supposed to form your minds so that you see the world differently. It changes you and in changing you, it changes the world. And so when we sing, your grace is enough. That's hard to believe sometimes. But if it burrows into our hearts and changes the way we think and see, we get changed and the world gets changed. And that truth that God's grace is enough settles. Battling through Ephesians, chapter five, where Paul says a whole bunch of stuff that we don't like hearing. Talking about everything from sex to how men and women are supposed to live together as husband and wife. It's been challenging and it's been exciting and I appreciate your patience and your encouragement as we've gone through it. And it's really cool to see us thinking differently about how we live in light of what God has done. In light of the fact that he broke in with Christ and he changes everything. And how that has these really deep, easy, simple, not easy, but simple, practical ways that that changes us. This week, you're wedding every Wednesday. This is how I think Erin looks. She's in the preschool so I can talk a little bit about her. That's Erin to me. Love that. And the thing is, I see her like this, especially, even sometimes like mostly, it's really weird. I'm a weird guy. She's like, she's been working real hard. She's been working out maybe. She's been doing an intense insanity ex. She does these crazy, crazy workouts. And she's flushed and she's sweaty and she's just ugh. But I look at her and I'm like, wow, you are an amazing woman. And I see Cinderella in her in those moments. Or she comes back from a long day at work. And I mean, if you don't know, Erin works with some of the neediest kids. Kids with special needs, severe special needs.

Teaching on Ephesians 5:25-27, Pastor Tom relates Christ's love for His bride, the church, to a husband's love for his wife, illustrating how a husband's self-giving love frees his wife to be a woman who reflects the glory of God to the world.
