Series: First Love Living | Dressing up in Purity  | July 20, 2025Before Ephesus lost their first love – they HAD a small but mighty church that was changing the world.  Ephesus was the gateway between Asia & Europe, along with being the guardian of the temple of Artemus (Diana – Wonder woman!), and hosted one of the greatest libraries of the First Century.  It was a city that had a higher percentage of literate people than almost every other city in the world.  It garnered wealth and influence and shared it through the thousands who passed through.  And even though the Christian community was small, it celebrated some of the greatest leaders and teachers of the new Christian era – Paul, Timothy, the Apostle John, Priscilla & Aquila, Apollos, and more!   Of all the churches of the first century, it’s the church MANY of us pastors & leaders aspire to become.
