Bryan Chapell on Ephesians (Re-release)

On this episode of Help Me Teach the Bible (thegospelcoalition.org/podcasts/help-me-teach-…), I spoke with Bryan Chapell, senior pastor of Grace Presbyterian Church in Peoria, Illinois, and the former president of Covenant Theological Seminary about how to teach through the book of Ephesians. Chapell’s books include Holiness by Grace: Delighting in the Joy That Is Our Strength (amazon.com/Holiness-Grace-Delighting-That-Stre…) and Christ-Centered Preaching (amazon.com/dp/0801025869/?tag=thegospcoal-20). In Ephesians, Paul presents us with so much essential teaching for understanding what Christ has done and how we are to live as those who belong to him.
Topics in the discussion include:
• the cosmic scope of Ephesians;
• God’s plan that includes the persecution of the church;
• the meaning of “the heavenly realm”;
• answering questions about predestination;
• key words and concepts such as reconciliation and mystery;
• the indicative and imperative of Ephesians; and
• teaching submission in the context of the broader message of Ephesians.
