This week at Venture, Pastor Brandon kicks off our journey through the book of Ephesians, reminding us that the life we have in Christ is one of incredible blessing, identity, and purpose. Through the story of Hetty Green, a woman who lived in poverty despite her great wealth, we’re challenged to stop living spiritually empty when we’ve already been given everything through Jesus. Paul’s letter to the Ephesians shows us what it means to be chosen, redeemed, and adopted as God’s sons and daughters. It’s a call to live fully in the richness of God’s grace. ⏱️ Timestamps 0:00 – Welcome to Venture Church Online0:34 – Hetty Green: The richest miser3:18 – Wealth and living like we’re poor3:47 – Introducing the book of Ephesians6:07 – Paul’s story and why he matters9:24 – Why Ephesus was such a big deal14:10 – Ephesians: deep theology and daily application20:28 – “In Christ” — the most important word23:19 – Benefit 1: Redemption25:59 – Benefit 2: Chosen by God34:24 – Benefit 3: Adopted into His family36:56 – Living like sons and daughters37:57 – Invitation to follow Jesus40:31 – Prayer and response
