Grounded and Sent - A Seven session Study of Ephesians
Ephesians is one of the most discipleship-dense letters in the New Testament. Written by Paul during his imprisonment, it holds together two inseparable realities: who God says you are in Christ, and how that identity reshapes every dimension of your life. This is not a letter about trying harder. It is a letter about becoming who you already are.
The series title Grounded & Sent draws from Paul’s prayer in Ephesians 3:17 — that believers would be “rooted and grounded in love” — and from the missional thrust of chapters 4–6. Transformation happens as we become grounded in who Christ has made us. Mission and calling flow from being sent.
This framework also quietly echoes Brazos Pointe’s mission to guide people to discover, develop, and deploy faith in Jesus. “Grounded and Sent” is about “developing” to “deploy.”
